“Is Everything Sacred?”

In "Is Everything Sacred?", Larry Gonick delivers a sharp, insightful journey through world history from 1 AD to 500 AD, tracing the fall of the Roman Empire and the rise of Christianity, alongside the shifting tides of Chinese dynasties and the dawn of the Tang era. With his signature blend of humor and clarity, Gonick charts centuries of transformation—faith, empire, and culture—all drawn, inked, lettered, and conceived by him in a single, cohesive vision. The cover by Larry Gonick perfectly captures the spirit of inquiry and wonder that defines this volume.
