Description
In Silk Roads, Peter Frankopan rewrites world history by shifting the center of the narrative from the West to the strategic crossroads between East and West, a region stretching from the Mediterranean shores to the Himalayas. Through 2,500 years of history, he reveals the geopolitical importance of this zone, reinterpreting the history of civilizations, from the Empire of Alexander the Great to contemporary issues. A masterly work that challenges traditional perspectives.
