About this listen
In this engrossing book, Boorstin examines what people have added to the world: painting, sculpture, architecture, theology, philosophy, history, poetry, drama, literature, dance, music, and film.
In a narrative brimming with lively biographical sketches and illuminating anecdotes, Boorstin captures the remarkable history of artistic achievement in the West.
Here is a truly epic story, told with all the excitement, appreciation, and authority Boorstin brought to The Discoverers.
