The Silk Roads: A New History of the World Book review by Deane Barker • December 30, 2018 • tags: history, geography • A spectacular history of Asia. This is a book where I stopped tracking what page I was on, because I just wanted to keep reading it. Also a book that could have been boring, but the writing style is just effortless and wonderful.
