From the Publisher:

"Awesome...There is no denying its terrific vitality, its originality, the immense range of its learning or its virtuoso self-confidence...I ended it awestruck"
-Jan Morris, Independent

"Not only the best history of the world we now have, it is also the best comparative history of the empires of the world. Everyone should read it."
-Anthony Pagden, The Times Literary Supplement
