Description
History that doesnt suck: Smart, crude, and hilariously relevant to modern life.
Those who dont know history are doomed to repeat it. Too bad its usually boring as sh*t. Enter The Captain, the ultimate storyteller who brings history to life (and to your life) in this hilarious, intelligent, brutally honest, and crude compendium to events that happened before any of us were born.
The entries in this compulsively readable book bridge past and present with topics like getting ghosted, handling haters, and why dog owners rule (sorry, cat people). Along the way youll get a glimpse of Edith Whartons sex life, dating rituals in Ancient Greece, catfishing in 500 BC, medieval flirting techniques, and squad goals from Catherine the Great.
Youll learn why losing yourself in a relationship will make you crazylike Joanna of Castile, who went from accomplished badass to Joanna the Mad after obsessing over a guy known as Philip the Handsome. Youll discover how Resting Bitch Face has been embraced throughout history (so wear it proudly). And youll see why its never a good idea to f*ck with powerful womenfrom pirate queens to diehard suffragettes to Cleo-f*cking-patra.
People in the past were just like usso learn from lifes losers and emulate the badasses. The Captain shows you how.
