Synopsis

This WOW title focuses on major events in our history, from the dawn of humankind through to the Industrial Revolution and the first moon landing. Packed with facts, figures, and fantastic photographs from the Science Museum, this is told in a chatty, colloquial tone - a brilliant book for learning about how historical events have shaped the world we live in today.
