A history of the world from the Neanderthals to Trump. It's a rollicking tale, a kaleidoscope of savagery, sex, cruelty and chaos. By focusing on family, Montefiore provides an intimacy usually lacking in global histories. [It] has personality and a soul. It's also outrageously funny . . . an enormously entertaining book Gerard DeGroot THE TIMES
Simon Montefiore ist ein ausgezeichneter Autor, der bereits mit seinem Werk Jerusalem brillierte. Nun legt er die Weltgeschichte als Familiengeschichte vor... Sehr überzeugend, informierend und mitreißend! Der schöne Einband trügt nicht
