A Short History of Humanity by Johannes Krause and Thomas Trappe

This book’s full title is A Short History of Humanity: A New History of Old Europe. It is translated by Caroline Waight from German. I found particularly of interest the movement of people from north of the Black Sea into Europe. This is probably because I am of European decent. A lot of the reviews seem to just skip over this part of the book.

There is a short review on Kirkus Review covering the basics from this book. However, the book covers a lot more concerning Europe. Florence Chilver at The Past site reviews this book. The review on Good Reads cover the part that of most interest to me and that was about European history. There are a number of reviews further down the page on Good Reads. The reviewer named Sense of History go into the European part of the book.

There is almost nothing on video for this book or the authors. That is probably because this book is a translation from the original book. The book was originally published in German as Die Reise Unserer Gene in 2019.
