Before we start, I am new to this board, so if what I'm saying sounds stupid, please forgive me.
I am looking for a "complete" history book(if there is such one).
One that covers everything from the start of human kind until today.
I just feel that my history knowledge is trash and I want to learn more.
Do you have anything to suggest me?

I'd recommend reading Guns, Germs and Steel.
