Although history is often conceived of as a series of significant dates, it is people who shape the course of human events. The "People Who Made History series profiles the distinctive individuals who through their talent, skills, intellect, or charisma have made an impact on their times and influenced generations thereafter. These individuals have influenced the course of history, often for the better, sometimes for the worse. Each volume profiles a significant figure and presents a variety of essays that focus on that person's major contributions or notorious deeds and their place in history. The essays are edited and organized to ensure their accessibility. An introductory essay provides essential background on the subject's life and times. The appendix of primary source documents and extensive bibliography offer avenues for further research.
