The Age of Empires
Robert Aldrich and Nicholas Doumanis
The story of thirteen modern Empires, a story full of suspense, cruelty, conflict, heroism, great explorations and extraordinary feats of endurance, is here told with a rich profusion of illustrations drawn from a wide range of vivid, colourful, authentic sources.Now that the age of empires is fully over, it is possible for the first time to draw up a balance sheet of praise and blame.
