100 Great Historians

Without knowledge of history, it is impossible to understand the present and foresee the future. Interest in one’s past has existed among all nations. A person has always wanted to know the history of their family, lineage, country, and humanity. The great Russian historian V.O. Klyuchevsky wrote: «Without knowledge of history, we must recognize ourselves as accidents, not knowing how and why we came into the world, how and for what we live, how and what we should strive for, mechanical dolls that are not born but made, that do not die according to the laws of nature and life, but break according to someone’s childish whim».
The historian himself is like a lonely wanderer in time. His work is the lot of the chosen. He must possess an analytical mindset, a powerful memory, and immense diligence.
A new book in the series tells about one hundred great historians of the world.
