The Humanities Summary

The Humanities: Culture, Continuity and Change, Book 5: 1800 to 1900 by Henry M. Sayre

For an undergraduate introductory level course in the humanities.

Humanities narrated in a story-telling approach.

The Humanities: Culture, Continuity & Change helps students see context and make connections across the humanities by tying together the entire cultural experience through a narrative storytelling approach.
