An invitation to explore world history
by reading one quality book at a time with me
On 1 March I am launching Season 1 of my new online history course, World History Explorers. I am interrupting my normal publication schedule to offer you a special invitation to join this course, and to speak 1:1 with me about the program.
You can find out all about the course, and sign up now, at courses.jeffrichwriter.com.
The best world tour in one book of the diverse history of civilizations, in every environment and every continent on Earth.
World History Explorers: Season 1 Civilizations
World History Explorers is part history book club, part peer learning, part friendly conversation about world history.
If you enrol you will get to explore world history, one quality book at a time.
Together we will read and discuss one of the best world history books of the last 25 years. We will travel to every continent and visit forgotten civilizations. We will break down the vastness of world history into one 90-day challenge.
In Season 1: Civilizations you will learn about one of history's biggest ideas, civilizations, and how they have flourished in every environment on earth. You will read Felipe Fernández-Armesto, Civilizations.
What will you get from the course?
* Develop your skills to make up your own mind on the big issues of today's world.
* Strengthen your empathy and dialogue with different cultures.
* Appreciate the diversity of the world's civilizations and prepare for your own travels, whether in real life or imagination
* Explore world history in expertly guided weekly discussions.

Most of all you will enjoy intelligent guided discussions weekly about world history. Curious?
Season 1 starts from 1 March 2024. Join now.
Future seasons will look at the environment and climate change, the rise and fall of empires, war and peace, and the West vs the Rest.

And there is a bonus for you as a Substack reader.
