What will the first wheel in history tell us? And the brush with which the great Leonardo painted the Mona Lisa? What do the ancient Egyptian cat and the cat of the English scientist Isaac Newton purr about?

Together with the heroes of this book, we will go on an unforgettable journey through all eras from antiquity to the present day and see history like no one has ever seen it before.

The best way to get to know history and love it is to personally communicate with the heroes of the past!
