History of the World in Bite Sized Chunks

Feel daunted by random parts of world history that were never taught to you in high school? Or that were taught to you and just haven't stuck. A quick brush up or introduction, this book is best suited for people looking to get to a level of where they know enough to digest the goings on in 3500 BCE up to 1945. While not comprehensive, it's excellent at getting you a baseline knowledge so you can then fill in the gaps you need, where you need them, for yourself.
