The End Is Always Near: Apocalyptic Moments, from the Bronze Age Collapse to Nuclear Near Misses by Dan Carlin

Did not finish book. Stopped at 44%.

This was recommended by someone who reads a broad depth of historical texts. Unfortunately it reads like a low budget history channel documentary.  This may be more suitable if you've listened to the podcast creator who wrote it, which admittedly I have not. Overall just felt like a surface level examination of bad things that happened throughout history. You'd be better spent reading extensively about the things this book merely highlights and glosses over.
