Ice Cream Sandwich

A clearly written, remarkably comprehensive guide to the greatest story on Earth - man's journey from the earliest times to the modern day.

There is an increasing realisation that our knowledge of world history – and how it all fits together – is far from perfect. A Short History of the World aims to fill the big gaps in our historical knowledge that is easy to read and assumes little prior knowledge of past events.

This app does not aim to come up with groundbreaking new theories on why things occurred, but rather gives a broad overview of the generally accepted version of events so that non-historians will feel less ignorant when discussing the past.

While this app covers world history from the Big Bang to the present day, it principally covers key people, events and empires since the dawn of the first civilisations in around 3500 BC. To help users put events, places and empires into context, this app includes 36 specially commissioned maps to accompany the text.

This app is reassuringly epic in scope but refreshingly short in length. An excellent place to start to bring your historical knowledge up to scratch!
