Özet
 From the bestselling author of The Templars, Dan Jones's epic new history tells nothing less than the story of how the world we know today came to be built.

Across 16 chapters, blending Dan Jones' trademark gripping narrative style with authoritative analysis, Powers and Thrones shows how, at each stage in this story, successive western powers thrived by attracting – or stealing – the most valuable resources, ideas and people from the rest of the world. It casts new light on iconic locations – Rome, Paris, Venice, Constantinople – and it features some of history's most famous and notorious men and women.

This is a book written about – and for – an age of profound change, and it asks the biggest questions about the West both then and now. Where did we come from? What made us? Where do we go from here?

So much information, so we’ll delivered. Learnt so much. Seems like an almost impossible task to cover such a vast period of time, but this book manages it and is also very well narrated by the author

Excellent

really enjoyed this book it was very informative and give me a good overview of History and how things fit together. example it was interesting to see how Plague and natural disaster affected history and had profound knock-on effects causing some Empires to fall while others using the opportunity afforded take advantage and become Nations and empires themselves. I highly recommend it if you love history

brilliant

Even though it was a vast subject matter Dan Jones has worked his magic again. Broken down into manageable chunks. Informative with Dan's usual engaging style.
Would recommend any day of the week.

Totally enlightening for me. Lived the way Dan structures the book to help understand how changes in key areas operate around Europe at similar times. I would like to buy the book now to study it more closely. Thoroughly recommend
