The End Is Always Near: Apocalyptic Moments, from the Bronze Age Collapse to Nuclear Near Misses
A journey back in time that explores what happenedāand what could have happenedāfrom creator of the wildly-popular podcastĀ Hardcore HistoryĀ and 2019 winner of the iHeartRadio Best History Podcast Award.
Dan Carlin has created a new way to think about the past. His mega-hit podcast,Ā Hardcore History, is revered for its unique blend of high drama, enthralling narration, andĀ Twilight Zone-style twists. Carlin humanizes the past, wondering about things that didnāt happen but might have, and compels his listeners to āwalk a mile in that other guyās historical moccasins.ā A political commentator, Carlin approaches history like a magician, employing completely unorthodox and always entertaining ways of re-looking at what we think we know about wars, empires, and leaders across centuries and millennia. But what happens to the everyman caught in the gears of history? Carlin asks the questions, poses the arguments, and explores the facts to find out.
Inspired by his podcast,Ā Hardcore HistoryĀ challenges the way we look at the past and ourselves. In this absorbing compendium, Carlin embarks on a whole new set of stories and major cliffhangers that will keep readers enthralled. Idiosyncratic and erudite, offbeat yet profound,Ā Hardcore HistoryĀ examines issues that are rarely presented, and makes the past immediately relevant to our very turbulent present.
