We used to believe in everything. Thunder had a name. The wind had a temper. The sun rode across the sky in a chariot, and the dead needed directions to find the afterlife. This is the story of how humans turned fear into firelight, rituals into religions, and mystery into mythology. From bone dolls in caves to modern AI cults, From Gods to God traces the full arc of belief — how we invented gods, gave them faces, wrote them books, and then slowly stopped believing in them altogether. It’s not about faith. It’s about why we ever needed it.

J.L. McWilliams and R. J. Steel uncover this horrifying battle from beginning to end and explore what it was like the for the French Algerians who first witnessed the gas clouds approaching them, how the Canadians stubbornly refused to retreat in the face of gas, what the British and Indians hoped to achieve with their tragic counterattacks, and ultimately why the German offensive failed.

What do North Korea, Iran, and Saudi Arabia have in common? They all made the list — and not the good kind.
