Description
From the Publisher
Part Two Of Two Parts
The Durants' The Story of Civilization series represents the most comprehensive attempt to present the vast panorama of human history and culture.
It begins with OUR ORIENTAL HERITAGE which deals first with the establishment of civilization and then, in rich, fascinating detail, records the cultural history of Egypt and the Middle East to the death of Alexander; of India from the Vedas to Mahatma Gandhi; of China from Confucius to Chiang Kai-shek; and of Japan from the earliest times to mid-1930s.
"All who read this book will owe the Durants a debt of gratitude." (The New York Times)
