History of Everywhere: All the Stuff That You Never Knew Happened at the Same Time
This fascinating book gives you a different way to look at the history of the world by looking at what happend in different places at the same time. In school we tend to study what happened in a single place, rather than the global context. Did you know that the wolly mamoths were still around when the Egyptains built the pyramids? Henry VIII was alive during the aztec empire, or that Mozart was alive during the American revolution? Full of fascinating facts and world maps, this book also delves a bit deeper in tof significant events such as Ancient Greece, the Aztecs, Mughal India & the second world war. It's a brilliant way to add context to the history curriculum for 7-12 year olds
