it is weird after e.p.thompson to read abt eg the london corresponding socs as if they were al qaeda and the luddites as they were mere thug morons: to realise how far thompson shifted the landscape with "history of the english working class"

the last words of the book are etched into my mind:

Let me put in a note for Larry Gonick's hilariously entertaining The Cartoon History of the Universe, which he's been working irregularly on for about 15 years now. Best overall world history I've ever read, while also including an extensive bibliography for further reading, which is great.
