"A Parody Outline of History" by Donald Ogden Stewart is a comedic look at American history that aims to retell facts in a humorous way. The book pokes fun at overtly serious texts that turn history into a chore to learn. This book has become an inspiration for countless subsequent books that have told the tale of human history through the narrative tool of humor in the years since. From Plymouth Rock to Custer, the book doesn't leave any stones unturned.
