Heroes and Jerks: The Best and Worst Who Ever Lived

By Ed Daly

Of the 113 billion people who have lived on Earth, an elite few stand out as particularly heroic or especially awful-those who have had a lasting impact on humankind. Perhaps it was for creating a vaccine that saved civilizations, or conversely, causing a genocide that destroyed generations. Perhaps it was was for inventing denim jeans (hero) or writing the song "We Built This City" (most definitely a jerk).This book examines the best and worst over time, those who have most influenced the world as we know it. From two million B.C. to 2019 - readers will laugh, learn, and time-hop their way through human history. Each hero and jerk is explained in quick, easily digestible Top 10 Lists. From world leaders to Hollywood actors to even a ten-year-old student, each entry is infused with humor, heart, and a modern approach to learning history. So sit back and enjoy the definitive ranking of human existence-Heroes and Jerks.
