accessing full history in Safari

Hi all,
I've had this problem for several years now, and can't figure out how to solve it. I was told fairly early on that holding down the forward or back buttons was the way to bring up history when in Safari, but that seems to only partially work. When I do that, it only pulls up what I've accessed in that particular tab. How do I tell it to show me everything I've ever accessed since I last reset my history?

Open Bookmarks by activating the Show Bookmark options from the bottom toolbars. There you should find the option to brows history. Hth.

Near the bottom of Safari, there is a button called show bookmarks, double tap on it and it should show your browsing history.
If you want to view a precise history of all the websites you have visited, go to settings, safari, advanced, website data, and this will show you your most frequently visited websites and redirects, as well as content providers, or CDN.
If you want the dates and times as well as the ability to go directly to websites you have visited, go to Safari, tap show bookmarks, and this will bring up the browsing history and it sometimes may be synced with iCloud.
