'A wonderful idea, gloriously put into practice.

In this gloriously entertaining romp through human history - featuring new updates for the paperback edition - BBC Horrible Histories consultant Greg Jenner explores the hidden stories behind these daily routines.

It is a history of all those things you always wondered - and many you have never considered. It is the story of our lives, one million years in the making.

Greg Jenner es, hoy en d a, uno de los historiadores en vida m?'s importantes del Planeta X, si no es el mejor En su opini n, los antiguos fueron muy claros en sus advertencias acerca del Planeta X y del 2012, y en esta obra, detalla numerosas relaciones entre las profec as del a o 2012 de los Maya y las de otras culturas, con una claridad escalofriante. Jenner cree que la Biblia Kolbrin es la Piedra Rosetta de los tiempos modernos del Planeta X, porque describe con claridad la destrucci n de la Atl ntida, la Inundaci n de No y el xodo. Seg n los autores egipcios y celtas de este antiguo texto sabio, estos cataclismos fueron provocados durante anteriores sobrevuelos del Planeta X.Si no fuera por la Biblia Kolbrin, no tendr amos acceso a la mayor parte de este conocimiento. Se trata de un hecho urgente, porque muchos de sus presagios ya han tenido lugar y con una conclusi n ineludible. El pr ximo catastr fico sobrevuelo del Planeta X es inminente
