Special Orders

This is the first volume in a bold new series that tells the stories of all peoples, connecting events from Europe to the Middle East to the far coast of China, while giving weight to the characteristics of each country. This narrative history employs the methods of "history from beneath" to connect leaders with the lives of those they ruled. The result is a tapestry from which we may draw conclusions about the direction of world events and the causes behind them.
