Sinossi
Geoffrey Blainey tries to survey history since the time when the first people left Africa to settle the globe.
He pays attention to technology and certain skills as he feels that they were initially a breakthrough for the human race. Attention is also given to the rise of the major religions, geographical factors, what people ate and how hard they workd in order to earn their daily bread. He also looks at empires and the areas they covered. The size of the territory which one leader, or one state, can rule has grown progressively larger.
He gained all of his knowledge from many visits to museums, art galleries, and libraries.
