There was once a pop-quiz in my world history class. The quiz was not only open-book and open-notes, it was also open-anything-you-brought-with-you and open-neighbor. I happened to have this book in my backpack. Needless to say, I did very well on the quiz, and so did everyone sitting near me.
This book is arranged like a timeline, with important events for each section of time outlined.
