It covers world history from hunter gatherers, to the end of the twentieth century, in a clearly organised, well-written, and lavishly illustrated volume, printed throughout in full colour. (Tom Monaghan )

Encompassing the whole of human history, this comprehensive book is a great classroom reference tool for the study of any society. (Junior Focus )

History at a glance which also tackles each topic in some depth. Hugely impressive - every child should have one. (Daily Express )
