Publisher Comments:

Best-seller history repeats itself with this dynamic new "almanac" format that broadens the scope and content of the Worst-Case Scenario handbooks. The Worst-Case Scenario Almanac: History offers step-by-step illustrated scenarios on how to win a joust, survive in a dungeon, and overcome other plights of yesteryear, but the volume also features hundreds of pages of additional—and hilarious—information in the form of lists (the worst jobs to have during the Industrial Revolution), offbeat profiles (Attila the Hun, Idi Amin), Worst-Case Wisdom (bad advice), descriptions of disasters narrowly averted, and much more. Packed with charts, graphs, maps, and timelines, The Worst-Case Scenario Almanac: History is an invigorating look at all that's gone wrong in the past and the best way to prepare for the future.

Synopsis:

Starting with the big bang and coming all the way up to the 21st century, THE WORST CASE SCENARIO BOOK OF HISTORY will be a century by century, decade by decade, and year by year almanac of History's Worst Moments, from the big to the little. The book will cover anything and everything that has - unfortunately - happened throughout history, including Natural Worst Case Scenarios, Man-Made Worst Case Scenarios, Death and Disease, Arts and Culture mishaps, Sporting Disasters, Crime and Punishment, and Government and Economics.
