About this book

In a fascinating reexamination of history, the Silk Roads: A New History of the World by Peter Frankopan looks at how Asia shaped the modern world. Ranging from the sixth to eighteenth centuries, this richly detailed book illuminates the ways trade, culture, and religion converged in transforming power on the ancient Silk Roads and opened a new window on global connections and the continuing reach of the East in civilization.
