Author: White, Matthew
Condition: New
An amusing (really) account of the murderous ways of despots, slave traders, blundering royals, gladiators and assorted hordes.-New York Times Evangelists of human progress meet their opposite in Matthew Whites epic examination of historys one hundred most violent events, or, in Whites piquant phrasing, the numbers that people want to argue about. Reaching back to the Second Persian War in 480 BCE and moving chronologically through history, White surrounds hard facts (time and place) and succinct takeaways (who usually gets the blame?) with lively military, social, and political histories. 4 maps
