A chronological compilation of twentieth-century world events in one volumeâfrom the acclaimed historian and biographer of Winston S. Churchill. The twentieth century has been one of the most unique in human history. It has seen the rise of some of humanityâs most important advances to date, as well as many of its most violent and terrifying wars. This is a condensed version of renowned historian Martin Gilbertâs masterful examination of the centuryâs history, offering the highlights of a three-volume work that covers more than three thousand pages. From the invention of aviation to the rise of the Internet, and from events and cataclysmic changes in Europe to those in Asia, Africa, and North America, Martin examines art, literature, war, religion, life and death, and celebration and renewal across the globe, and throughout this turbulent and astonishing century.
