The History of the World

Ewald Frie |Sophia Martineck

The history of the world from the first human beings to the present day, retelling it from a truly global perspective: Ewald Frie brings to life flourishing empires and glittering metropolises around the globe that traded with each other, waged wars and learned from each other. And he takes us to lost cultures we usually overlook from Europe. Athens is on the sidelines, but no one who reads this wonderfully written book will forget the beauty of Kilwa in Africa.
