'Oliver is an evocative storyteller, vividly bringing his tales to
life' BBC History From Genghis Khan's domination on earth to
Armstrong's first steps on the moon, discover the 100 moments that
defined humanity and shaped our world forever. Neil Oliver takes us
on a whistle-stop tour around the world and through a million years
to give us this unique and invaluable grasp of how human history
pieces together. From the east to the west, north to south, these
100 moments act like stepping stones allowing us to make sense of
how these pivotal events have shaped the world we know today.
Including many moments readers will expect - from the advent of the
printing press to the birth of the internet - there are also
surprises, and with them, some remarkable, unforgettable stories
that give a whole new insight on our past. From the bestselling
author of The Story of the British Isles in 100 Places, this is
outstanding new history of how our world was made from 5000 BC to
the present. ********************* Praise for Neil Oliver 'Neil
Oliver writes beautifully - bringing the past to life and letting
us see ourselves in a new light.' - Professor Alice Roberts
'Brilliantly demonstrates Neil's mastery of the broad sweep of
British history and landscape.' - Dan Snow 'Highly-crafted...a
vivid, pungent history.' - TLS 'Compelling' - Daily Mail
