CHRONOLOGICA

DID YOU KNOW…

The Unbelievable Years that Defined History

In 105 AD paper was invented in China?

When Columbus discovered the New World?

The British Museum opened in 1759?

CHRONOLOGICA is a fascinating journey through time, from the foundation (建立) of Rome to the creation of the Internet. Along the way are tales of kings and queens, hot air balloons… and monkeys in space.

Travel through 100 of the most unbelievable years in world history and learn why being a Rome Emperor wasn’t always as good as it sounds, how the Hundred Years’ War didn’t actually last for 100 years and why Spencer Perceval holds a rather unfortunate record.

CHRONOLOGICA is an informative and exciting tour into history, beautifully illustrated (加插 圖) and full of unbelievable facts. While CHRONOLOGICA tells the stories of famous people in history such as Thomas Edison and Alexander the Great, this book also gives an account of the lives of lesser-known individuals including the explorer Mungo Park and sculpture Gutzon Borglum.

This complete but brief historical collection is certain to entertain readers young and old, and guaranteed to present even the biggest history lover with something new!
