N2  - "A great historian can make clear the connections between the first Homo sapiens and today's version of the species, and a great storyteller can make those connections come alive. David Christian is both, and This Fleeting World: A Short History of Humanity, makes the journey--from the earliest foraging era to the agrarian era to our own modern era--a fascinating one. Ready to help your students give up their preconceptions that anything old is probably boring? Enter This Fleeting World."--From publisher description
