It is a historical journey that no one could imagine! In it, we see primitive man roaming the forests in search of food, drink, and shelter. Then we move on to witness the first civilizations of Egypt, Phoenicia, and Mesopotamia. We cross the sea to circumnavigate the Greek civilization that lasted for centuries. We witness the rise and fall of the great Roman Empire. Then we visit Europe in the Middle Ages, where powerful families fought, ending with the Renaissance, in which man reached the top of the pyramid in sophistication and development, writing in luminous letters the most important chapters in his story that extends over millions of years... a story. Humanity. The first book that won the prestigious Newbery Medal in the United States of America in 1922 for narrating in a concise and interesting way the greatest story that could ever be told.
