A Short History of The World (Unabridged) : The Beginnings of Life, The Age of Mammals, The Neanderthal and the Rhodesian Man, Primitive Thought, Primitive Neolithic Civilizations, Sumer, Egypt, Judea, The Greeks and more

This carefully crafted ebook: "A Short History of The World (Unabridged)" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. A Short History of the World is a period-piece non-fictional historic work. The book was largely inspired by Wells's earlier 1919 work The Outline of History. The book is summarising the scientific knowledge of the time regarding the history of Earth and life. It starts with its origins, goes on to explain the development of the Earth and life on Earth, reaching primitive thought and the development of humankind from the Cradle of Civilisation. The book ends with the outcome of the First World War, the Russian famine of 1921, and the League of Nations in 1922. Herbert George Wells (1866–1946), known as H. G. Wells, was a prolific English writer in many genres, including the novel, history, politics, and social commentary, and textbooks and rules for war games.
