Description:
Harper & Row Publishers, NY, 1979. 1st edition. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. "In the early chapters, Hugh Thomas considers the origins of life and man as hunter. Later chapters deal with the impact of climate on early history and the coming of agriculture. In the central portion he discusses the intellectual transformation known as the Renaissance, technological advances, and the growth of cities and commerce. The reader is then led with a sure hand through the industrial age and the immense variety of inventions and technical changes since 1750. In the last part of the book, the impact of these technical changes on political and social life is examined. Finally, Thomas traces the disastrous consequences of over-reliance on the state - the First World War, the rise of fascism and nazism, the Second World War and the Cold War." [Dust Jacket] Comprehensive world history. Detailed index. 700 pages. There is a protective mylar cover. STATED 1ST US EDITION.

Description:
Farrar, Straus, Giroux, NY, 1982. 1st edition. Hardcover. Fine/Near Fine. On October 29,1857, Henry Thoreau wrote in his journal of a dream that had come to him fo perhaps the twentieth time. He saw a mountain standing east of Concord, where the land is low and flat, and climbed to its summit: 'And are there not such mountains, east or west, from which you may look down on Concord in your thought, and on all the world?' This dream was more real than imaginary, for during his brief, energetic life... Thoreau climbed several mountains in New England and wrote fine accounts of his experiences."
