WARS THAT CHANGED THE WORLD
by Charles Messenger
Our story begins almost 2500 years ago on 28 September 480 BC, when the Athenian navy destroyed the Persian invasion fleet in the Bay of Salamis. Had the Persians won we might never have heard the names of Plato, Aristotle or Alexander, nor recognise the word democracy. Charting 25 such defining conflicts, concluding with the Gulf Wars and the future of the War on Terror, Wars That Changed the World is a unique and fascinating portrayal of the story of world history.
