""A Short History of the World"" is a non-fiction book written by H.G. Wells, first published in 1922. It provides a concise yet comprehensive overview of human history, from the earliest civilizations to the end of World War I. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the development of agriculture, the rise and fall of empires, the spread of religion, and the progress of science and technology. Wells also explores the social and cultural changes that have occurred throughout history, from the emergence of art and literature to the evolution of political systems. The book is aimed at a general audience and is written in a clear and accessible style. It is considered a classic of popular history and has been widely read and translated into many languages.Great conquerors appear in the dim light of that distant time and pass, Tushratta, King of Mitanni, who captured Nineveh, Tiglath Pileser I of Assyria who conquered Babylon. At last the Assyrians became the greatest military power of the time. Tiglath Pileser III conquered Babylon in 745 B.C. and founded what historians call the New Assyrian Empire. Iron had also come now into civilization out of the north; the Hittites, the precursors of the Armenians, had it first and communicated its use to the Assyrians, and an Assyrian usurper, Sargon II, armed his troops with it.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
