Whimsical illustrations, fact-filled charts, and annotated maps enliven and support this fast-paced trip through time, capturing the broad and lively sweep of world events.
Beginning from when humans first walked the earth and ending with a look to the future, the book’s wider narrative, broken down into manageable nuggets, moves in chronological order to tell stories of people, events, and and developments that have left an indelible mark on history, such as the invention of writing, the first empires, ancient religions, the fall of Rome, the Renaissance, new world seekers, World Wars I and II, civil rights, and the first moon landing.
