Product Description
Explore the conspiracies, clandestine operations and coups that have shaped the course of history.This is history … but not as you know it. Behind the great events, figures and developments of the past, there have always been fiendish plots, hidden machinations and covert operations.Leading readers through a truly worldwide history, Jacob F.Field examines how conspiracies have shaped the course of humanity, from the earliest times right up until the modern day. In 50 bite-sized chapters spanning 2,500 years, A Short History of the World in 50 Conspiracies details bloody coups, gruesome assassinations and devious espionage to give a new perspective on the past. These are conspiracies that have sparked wars, scandals and regime changes, from the assassination that eliminated Xerxes the Great, one of the great rulers of the ancient world, to the 1991 coup that attempted to preserve Communist rule in Russia. Readers will follow the complex, intriguing and sometimes underhand ways the past was shaped across the millennia, as Field reveals new perspectives on events from the Crusades to the French Revolution, to World Wars I and II, as well as influential figures like Julius Caesar, Abraham Lincoln and Nelson Mandela. A Short History of the World in 50 Conspiracies will take you into the shadows of history to reveal the seismic impact of the world’s most fascinating conspiracies.
