My two cents:
1) hospital corners: neat and clean beds are made with "hospital corners", i.e.
nicely tucked in, clean (and white) sheets.
2) timeline: a chronological line of a) what Mander thinks of poaching and
environmental destruction, or b) how Mander has developed, in terms of his
business, with regards to poaching and environmental destruction. The author
likely means a) and not b).
So to rephrase:
Mander understands most of modern history as a clean, linear sequence of events
without complex issues (wrinkles, peaks or dips), just perfectly clear,
straight, and it's all someone else's fault.
