Item description
History. The name itself evokes boredom. Lists of dates and of long-dead people, what good are they for the present day? Alright, maybe history does warn us about the mistakes we have already committed, but how on earth is anyone to read and remember all those lists of dates and long dead people, that too from every part of the globe? How interesting can it be to read about an aspiring Afghan chief who invited members of his family for dinner, excused himself in between and blew up all of his cousins (and rivals for becoming chief) through the hidden sacks of the gunpowder they were sitting on? Or about a certain king in Bukhara who threw a couple of English envoys into a pit full of all sorts of insects, kept them there for more than a year, and then finally killed them?
