jhnd 's review for:

The Silk Roads: A New History of the World by Peter Frankopan

4.0

This is a book that should be read. I've read some reviews in newspapers that suggested that there are inaccuracies in his telling. Perhaps. But what made this expansive telling from ancient times to the present day is the perspective. Understanding where my northern European country fits, how the actions of my country have been perceived by other regions. Excellent, refreshing and very useful to better understand the state of things today.
