This comprehensive and compelling visual encyclopaedia tells the
story of our world in true depth and detail, from the origins of
life on Earth right up until the 21st century. Human endeavour and
achievement is charted and celebrated from every angle, alongside
key events, groundbreaking ideas, political forces, and
technological advances that have shaped our planet's progress. More
than 600 pages chronicle global history in the most informative,
illuminating, and inspiring way. Stunning images and illustrations
bring the authoritative text to life, so each historical episode is
explored and explained for easy reference and understanding.
Important points in history, from the Battle of Hastings and the
storming of the Bastille to D-day and 9/11, are given clear but
concise coverage, together with profiles of influential figures,
such as Rameses II, Julius Caesar, and Nelson Mandela. As each
moment in history is defined and detailed, the causes and
consequences are provided in supporting panels to provide a wider
context and broaden our horizons. Contemporary issues, including
climate change and the rise of social media, bring us out of the
past and firmly into the present. Recently updated and expanded,
History is the story of humankind in which we all have a part to
play. This classic compendium is a worthy addition to any bookshelf
or library for generations of readers to look back in wonder at the
world.
