Product details
Zigzagging through world history.
Did you know that Caesar founded FC Bayern Munich? That we owe the TV series "The X-Files" to Stalin? Or that a flying cow made Viagra socially acceptable, Frank Sinatra became a deadly weapon due to the invention of the light bulb, and Nietzsche wrote the official song for the 2010 Winter Olympics?
From every event in world history, there are only seven steps to even the most absurdly distant other, as Danny Kringiel amusingly demonstrates. With seven-league boots, he rushes through pop culture and hard history, linking educational content with entertainment: like how Richard Wagner created the most patriotic fries in the world, the plague inspired Harry Potter's love life, and Johannes Gutenberg gifted a wayward Mormon with sex on the moon. In this surprising and cheeky manner, he shows why absolutely everything is connected to absolutely everything!.
