"In this wickedly funny take on modern history, best-selling author Larry Gonick picks up where his award-winning Cartoon History of the Universe left off. This first part of The Cartoon History of the Modern World opens with the history of ancient Mexico, the arrival of Colombus in the New World, the Spanish conquest, the Portuguese empire in Asia, and the formation of the first fully global system of trade and ideas." -fra omslaget 

Nyoversatt og innbundet - dette er en aldeles strøken utgave av Pratts klassiker.
