Description:
This book is one of the most odd in our Collection, since it is written and illustrated by Mr. Van Loon himself. The author was passionate about history. His book, "The Story of Mankind" won the first Newberry award for children's writing. His eccentric style was either loved or hated, and since he was more concerned with ideas than facts, his books are like a window into how the man thought. This book's dust cover has been reconstructed and preserved, since it was falling apart; the interior of the book is mark-free and lovely, and includes a sheet that details where each character appears in the book, almost as if they were stepping on the stage. He obviously viewed History as a great drama.
