The Human Journey offers a truly concise yet satisfyingly full history of the world from ancient times to the present. The book’s scope, as the title implies, is the whole story of humanity, in planetary context. Its themes include not only the great questions of the humanities—nature versus nurture, the history and meaning of human variation, the sources of wealth and causes of revolution—but also the major transformations in human history: agriculture, cities, iron, writing, universal religions, global trade, industrialization, popular government, justice, and equality. In each conceptually rich chapter, leading historian Kevin Reilly concentrates on a single important period and theme, sustaining a focused narrative and analytical perspective. Chapter 2, for example, discusses the significance of bronze-age urbanization and the advent of the Iron Age. Chapter 3 examines the meaning and significance of the age of “classical” civilizations. Chapter 4 explains the spread of universal religions and new technologies in the postclassical age of Eurasian integration. But these examples also reveal a range of approaches to world history. The first chapter is an example of current “Big History,” the second of history as technological transformations, the third of comparative history, the fourth the history of connections that dominates, and thus narrows, so many texts. Free of either a confined, limiting focus or a mandatory laundry list of topics, this book begins with our most important questions and searches all of our past for answers. Well-grounded in the latest scholarship, this is not a fill-in-the-blanks text, but world history in a grand humanistic tradition.

Mike Bara, author of Ancient Aliens on the Moon, takes a hard look at the Bermuda Triangle. For decades, no single place has intrigued the world more than the baffling mystery of the Bermuda Triangle. Hundreds of ships, planes and yachts have disappeared in the dark, mysterious waters between Bermuda and Florida, far more than in any other part of the world. Ships have vanished without a trace only to magically reappear years later in good order but minus their crews, almost as if the intervening years had not even passed–for them. Yachts and ocean liners have gone missing in good weather with no explanation. Pilots have reported bizarre problems with their instruments as compasses and guidance systems have spun inexplicably out of control over the shadowy waters of the Triangle. Entire squadrons of military aircraft have disappeared off of radarscopes in clear weather and with no forewarning. Others have experienced strange magnetic anomalies and otherworldly encounters with mysterious craft and unrecognizable energetic fields. Explanations range from alien encounters to rogue waves to twisting unnatural funnel spouts caused by submerged civilizations left over from the days of Atlantis. New York Times bestselling author Mike Bara investigates these and other mysteries of the Bermuda Triangle in his new book The Triangle. Find out what really happened to Flight 19, the Navy training flight that last reported “they look like they’re from outer space” over the Triangle. Examine the undersea ruins of a lost civilization just off the island of Bimini and the strange stone road that leads directly into the deep waters of the Triangle. Examine the case of the Cotopaxi, the ore ship lost at sea only to reappear decades later off the coast of Cuba, far beyond where it was last sighted in the Triangle’s maritime shipping lanes. These and other enigmatic cases will be stripped open and laid bare before the light of history as the reader is carried on a journey to the world’s most frightening and impenetrable mystery–The Bermuda Triangle.
