The Outline Of History, Vol. 1 by H. G. Wells
Being a Plain History of Life and Mankind
A sweeping, readable narrative that traces the development of human societies from their prehistoric origins through the emergence of early civilizations, examining the interplay of geography, culture, science, religion and politics that shaped collective human progress; it synthesizes archaeological and historical knowledge into a broad interpretive story about how peoples, ideas and institutions evolved over millennia and argues for a rational, comparative view of history that highlights both conflict and cooperation in shaping the modern world.
