A cat's-eye view of history! Discover secrets, stories and facts about history's most fascinating felines! Young historians may never look at the past - or cats! - in quite the same way again.

Cats have prowled Earth for millennia, yet the history of the world has always been told through the eyes of humans. But now it's time to - finally! - set the record straight and uncover the key role that cats have played in shaping the course of history.

Did you know that ancient Egyptians loved cats so much that they
  had special laws to protect them? Or that Isaac Newton's cat helped
  him develop the theory of gravity? How about that Feliette,
  a French street cat, was the first cat to go into space in
  1963? A History of the World (According to Cats!) introduces
  us to fur-raising facts and adventures from around the world
  and across the centuries. Discover unknown stories about
  real-life felines, including WWII heroes, courageous
  adventurers and even an astrocat that travelled in space (and made
  it back to Earth to tell the tale), this book places cats
  as the heroes of their own stories.


  Full of real-life stories, with all the boring stuff left out,
  this book takes a look at the world's history through feline
  eyes.
