You can't with the built-in history, but maybe you could try an extension:
History 2
History 2 overrides default history page with a more user-friendly one. (Tools Menu > History or Ctrl-H)
History 2: A history page like the original but grouped by the host for easy viewing.
Better History
A better look at your browsing history. The best searching, the sharpest interface, and the most useful filters - for your history. It's Chrome History, only much Better.
EDIT: Another good extension you could try:
History Plus
- Select date range easier: Today, Yesterday, Last Week, Last Month, All
- Select max result number easier: 100, 250, 500, 1000
- Delete history
- Grouping same domain in the list
- Show visit counts each url in the list

After trying a lot of extensions, I would recommend one.
Ladies and Gentlemen, ... the winner is
(different) Better History
There is possibility to search using RegExp (Regular Expressions), which is the most powerful way for searching.
E.g: /^h.*\/\/cz\./
searches for anything that:
^h
- begins with "h" (http, https).*
- continues with anything\/\/
- continues "//";\
is used to escape the "/"cz
- continues with "cz"\.
- continues with ".";\
escapes otherwise special-meaning.
, which stands for "any character you might think of"
Note: /
in the beginning and end, just enables Regular Expression search.

Few days ago I got to know about History Timeline chrome extension. It overrides actual history page and shows you history as timeline with thumbnail which helps to search particular web page. You can even filter results, refine your search by giving time period etc.
