Graeber did a top notch job with Debt: The First 5000 thousand years. But I think Anthropologists taking on big history is a bit of a stretch. Harari's books, for example are very superficial, trying to touch on everything from biology to politics and end up with very little real insight. I never felt Dawn of Everything would be worth the time and money... edit: for the record, answering in edits is weird and I'm against it... authors slinging mud is hardly a case for their own competence, besides recommending a book about the whole of history to someone who wanted documentary recommendations on a very specific topic in History is also a bit of a hack
