There was an article recently about the failure of pop non fiction sales and it mostly centered around the idea how most of the people writing it don't know how to tell a story.

I'm not asking for a Manga edition of world history like some did with the Manga Bible, but liven it up a bit and people will pay attention.

There's also a great story about a bar fight that explains world War I pretty fucking well.

Yeah but they left out, Russia and Japan in Manchuria, Russia pretty much started WW2, Hitler just managed to get everyone else involved.
