Review: Exactly what I wanted - Arrived next day, great quality and exactly what I need.
Review: Tying ancient history together - This is the thrird copy I have bought as I keep giving mine away to friends, also interested in this. It is a great way to tie in the many aspects of individual local histories on my travels. For instance, how else do you work out what was happening in Filitosa, Corsica when they were carving their menhirs with, say where the 'Sea People' were coming from?. Or , if as we did, visit the early bronze age site near Cheng Du, wonder what was happening in Mesopotamia at the same time - who won the race? (Mesopotamia - the Chinese did not even have to go through the dangerous arsenical bronze period even!). This is the book that will tell you and make you chuckle at the same time.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Skimming the surface
*by P***N on 11 April 2009*

This book has been criticised for not being something else. If you want an in-depth history of the Egyptians, Hittites, Indo-Europeans or Romans, look elsewhere. This is a history of Europe as a whole (which includes the Near-East and North Africa) over a long period of time. For anyone who wants to understand the transition of the region AS A WHOLE from prehistory to history, it is excellent and almost unique. It's not quite as good as its Medieval counterpart , but it's splendid nonetheless. It starts in the Ice Age and ends in 362AD, with Emperor Julian about to lead his legions against the Persians and with the Huns in Kazakhstan, looming ominously. It overlaps with the Medieval book, but should have overlapped a bit more in order to show the end of the classical world. There are printing errors - a missed character on one map; Ireland disappearing briefly at the end of the Ice Age - but the story of the creation of our world is well told with McEvedy's trademark deftness and wit. Where else would the non-specialist learn about Sargon of Akkad, the Seleucids and the Tocharians - not to mention the linguistic development that made nearly every language from the Orkneys to the Indus related to each other? This is a light, easy read that can be dipped into at any time for an easy, broad introduction to early history. Recommended.
