Throughout the Centuries: Famous Inventors and Inventions

By George Owen

History is full of strange ideas, forgotten experiments, and inventions that quietly changed how people lived.

Throughout the Centuries is a light, accessible look at some of the most influential and unexpected inventions in human history, from ancient civilizations to the early modern world. Rather than focusing on dates and dry detail, this book explores the stories behind the ideas, the people who created them, and the impact they had on everyday life.

Inside, you will discover:

How Roman and Chinese inventions shaped centuries that followed

Surprising origins of familiar games, technologies, and tools

Lesser-known inventors whose ideas changed the world

How some modern innovations were anticipated long before their time

Written for readers who enjoy history but prefer clarity and curiosity over heavy academic detail, this book offers a concise journey through the ingenuity of mankind.
