Overview
A History of the World in 101/2 Chapters tells a series of apparently unconnected stories ranging from a woodworm's eye view of the journey on Noah's Ark to an astronaut's quest for its final resting place.

It's about everything that matters, told with brilliant imagination, intelligence, and humor.
