If you already know a bit of history, there is no reason to read this book. Wells really isn't lying when he says it's an “outline.” There's a few interesting and new things here and there, but if you found this book, chances are that you're already familiar with most of the stuff he talks about.
Only reason I didn't rate it lower: it was interesting to see a historical perspective on the past we know. For instance, quite in line with his time, Wells can't help but note the impact of “Aryan peoples” here and there, even though he insists that Europe was a backwater until relatively recently.
