Publisher's Summary

History class never told you these stories.

What did Robert the Bruce learn from a spider? Why did Botticelli throw his paintings into a bonfire? How did the ancient Chinese use bones to predict the future?

Travel through 365 moments in human history, starting with the ancient Sumerians.

Learn how a female detective went undercover as Abraham Lincoln's sister to save the president from assassination in the early years of the Civil War.

Hear the story of the first human blood transfusion—and why scientists transfused animal blood into their human subjects.

Visit London's first coffee house and find out why some condemned the "newfangled, abominable, heathenish liquor called coffee".

Puzzle over the dancing plague in Strasbourg, where compulsive dancing killed Germans who claimed they couldn't stop.

One Day at a Time explores 365 moments in human history, from the development of writing through the 21st century.

These snapshots into the past capture the evolution of technology, the increasing connections between distant lands, and the individual triumphs that make history so fascinating.
