Read "Idea of history" by Collingwood.. that would help you...

Egypt is the oldest recorded civilisation. If you want to be thorough, start there.
Connor James
The Bible is the only true history book there is. Watch out for deceivers claiming the ancient Egyptians and other pagans could have high morals and that ancient Hebrews were polytheists and got their concept of a Messiah and a Final Judgment from the Zoroastrians, for their are the children of perdition.

The new megaupload.

Mega is like Megaupload. The link is mega.nz
It gives you 50 GB of free cloud storage after you create account making it ideal for sharing files without the retarded seeders/leechers that slow down and in the end deny the distribution of information.
I have eleven different accounts of which i filled completely nine of them and others are nearly full.
