Reviews for The Age of Revolution
13 ratings1 review
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Man, there were sure a lot of revolutions in this period of time, in every facet of life. This is a sweeping epic, focusing on mostly the European, mixing detail with generalization. This is what history books should strive to be.
