Synopsis

Rewind history to the juicy bits, let me take you there. Do you think history is just about boring dates and long-dead kings and queens? Open me up and I'll show you 200,000 years, 106,456,367,669 people, 5,000 languages, 100 million books, 10,000 religions, 119 great empires, seven ancient wonders, two world wars, one Elvis and zero boring stuff. Let me take you back and explore history as you've never seen it before. Read Napoleon's profile on a social networking site and see a news anchorman present the headlines as the heads roll in the French revolution. I'm packed with 3,500 years of bloody battles, glorious empires, revolting revolutions, monstrous monarchs, and so much more. You can discover the good bits, the really amazing bits, the gory, exciting, bizarre and jaw-droppingly incredible bits of history, as you've never read, seen, heard or experienced it before.
