Editorial Reviews

"Our brains positively fizzed and buzzed"

Holy Preparatory School

"Epic - this is history let out of a box"

"This is history let out of its box. It simply sings to infophiles and visual learners alike. With parallel timelines for all continents, developments on land, sky and sea, more than a thousand illustrations, it is a superlative mastery of design and research, a treat to eye and brain alike."
