Description

Discover the remarkable story of human civilization in The Outline of History by H. G. Wells, a classic work of historical nonfiction presented in this revised third edition, illustrated by J. F. Horrabin.

Best known for his pioneering science fiction, Wells turns his attention to world history, tracing the development of life, early civilizations, ancient empires, religions, political movements, and the events that shaped humanity.

Written with an ambitious global outlook, this influential work examines the connections between cultures and societies, presenting history as a shared human experience rather than a collection of isolated national stories.

J. F. Horrabin's illustrations help bring historical subjects to life, adding visual interest to Wells's sweeping account of civilization.

Ideal for readers interested in world history, historical literature, and classic nonfiction, The Outline of History is also an appealing addition to collections of vintage history books and works by H. G. Wells.

Hardcover, Good vintage condition. Original burgundy cloth covers retained. Spine professionally reinforced with darker-coloured cardstock, with the original gilt-lettered spine cloth carefully reattached. Interior pages show age-related toning and occasional spotting. Published in 1921 by The Macmillan Company, third revised edition.
