MUSE OF ART

Addition to the Geodyssey series (Hope of Earth, 1997, etc.) wherein Anthony hopes to present the true essence of history, as opposed to boring old facts. He’s not kidding: “when you start seeing novels like this one in the classroom along with the dry texts, you’ll know that the schools are finally getting serious about teaching real history.” Once again, he will explore, explain, relate, and admonish, from prehistory with Homo erectus through ancient Egypt, the Kelts, the Khmer and Napoleon to Stalingrad and World War Three, illustrating along the way such arts as drama, seduction, justice, and politics. Over to you.
