H. G. Wells examines the origins of the Earth, and the development of life upon the planet, as it was understood in his era, and then explores the history of human civilization from its earliest beginnings, through the various empires of world history, up to the aftermath of the First World War, and the League of Nations.

From the origin of our planet, to the great civilizations, to the Great War, follow Wells on this ambitious journey spanning thousands of years. Although H.G.
