I was particularly interested because (a) I inherited an original copy of 100 Great Lives and (b) my father and uncles worked at Odhams Press. We tend to think of "history" as "the past". It isn't - it's how the present looks at the past. ksotikoula's question about women is a logical 21st century question - but this book was published in 1949. Only 7 out of 100 lives were great women, reflecting much more 1949 attitudes to women rather than the historical importance of women.
Attention White Parents: Google "Black Invention Myths" and click on the brinkster site. Then you will be prepared to counter some of the Afrocentric revisionist claims that your children have learned from textbooks.
Also Isaac newton was alot more infuential in both history and Science than Chares darwin or anyone ese mentioned there. Newton is the most infuential person in science, why is he in the 5th position?
