The History of the World in Bite-Sized Chunks
The History of the World in Bite-Sized Chunks

Digestible morsels of global historical events.

If you're often daunted by thick history tomes, this book could be the perfect antidote. Emma Marriott's "The History of the World in Bite-Sized Chunks" distills vast historical periods into manageable portions. It's an engaging way to fill gaps in your knowledge or refresh what you may have forgotten since school days, and it's well-suited for anyone with an interest in world history but with limited time to dedicate to more voluminous works.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

History is a rich, varied and fascinating subject, so it's rare to find the whole lot in one book...until now. "The History of the World in Bite-Sized Chunks" pulls it all together, from the world's earliest civilizations in 3500 BC to the founding of the United Nations in 1945, passing by the likes of Charlemagne, the Ottoman Empire and the Crimean War, to name a few. Here's your chance to introduce yourself to the full spectrum of world history, and discover just how the modern world came to be.
