The End of Everything by Victor Davis Hanson, 2024
“In The End of Everything, Hanson tells compelling and harrowing stories of how civilizations perished. He helps us consider contemporary affairs in light of that history, think about the unthinkable, and recognize the urgency of trying to prevent our own demise.” — H. R. McMaster, author of Battlegrounds
@skatercat@appassionato Accurate, though. At the end of every empire, it was the end of life as everybody at the time was used to, and presumed to continue indefinitely. It's amusing how certain religions keep prepared for "end times" when we've already had several.
