"Tragedy and Hope: A History of the World in Our Time" is a book written by Carroll Quigley, an American historian and professor at Harvard University. The book was published in 1966 and is considered a comprehensive and insightful analysis of world history, covering the period from the late 19th century to the mid-20th century.
The book's reputation as a "banned book" adds to its allure. While Macmillan published the book, it allegedly allowed the print run to dwindle and did not reprint it for many years, leading to skyrocketing prices for used copies (often selling for hundreds of dollars) before digital versions circulated.
