The author of the major bestseller, The Story of the British Isles in 100 Places, presents a journey through time, curating one hundred moments that shaped our world, from 5000 BC to the present.
From much-loved historian Neil Oliver comes a whole new insight on our past, told through 100 remarkable, unforgettable stories.
In his brilliant and excitingly ambitious new book, Neil Oliver takes us on a whistlestop tour around the world and through a million years to give us a unique and invaluable grasp of how human history pieces together.
From the east to the west, north to south, these 100 moments act like stepping stones allowing us to make sense of how these pivotal events have shaped the world we know today.
Including many moments readers will expect - from Genghis Khan's domination on earth to Armstrong's first steps on the moon, and from the advent of the printing press to the birth of the internet - there are also surprises, and with them, some remarkable, unforgettable stories that give a whole new insight on our past.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Interesting store with a good range of beautiful books. Admittedly the one I bought was cheaper elsewhere by a few dollars, but if you don't mind a slight difference in price this is a charming place to visit. Staff are friendly and helpful and allowed me to browse uninterrupted.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Found this place after someone else's recommendation, and now I don't know how I hadn't discovered it ages ago! It has the BEST selection of kids books (which is what I went in for) and an amazing range of modern themed kids and Te Reo books. Plus the staff are super friendly and knowledgeable! Will definitely be back.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Amazing bookstore!! THEY HAVE MANGA!! and not just your generic stuff either, titles that ive never seen before. A little bit more expensive than buying them online but for not having to ship them from overseas and supporting local, totally worth it!!!!
