Description:

In one sense history is everything that has happened - or has been thought - from the beginning of time. But history is not the mindless memorization of facts and dates. The reason why history fascinates is that it asks the oldest question the human race has ever asked: Who are we? By exploring who we were yesterday, 100 years ago, or 2,000 years ago, we gather greater understanding about who we are today. It is the most fundamental of all unanswered questions. And history moves us closer to answering it.
