Many people are posting videos, I think a book and some college courses would do you the best. There is no better way to learn about human history than being taught face to face with someone who has devoted their life to it.
This book is huge but goddamn, it has to be my best piece of reference work and it is very comprehensive.

First, I have a very US-centric perspective, so you may notice that in my recommendations. I'm just looking at my bookcase recommending anything I've read and enjoyed (if it's on my bookcase, I enjoyed it). I have a lot more books in boxes, so if you want more recommendations do let me know. Also, if you want more information on any of the books, feel free to ask me.
