Bonus Episode: Top 10 Families of History

Aspects of History - Un pódcast de Oliver Webb-Carter

Categorías:

After speaking with Simon Sebag Montefiore a few weeks ago, I was inspired to list my top 10 families of world history. Join me as I list them from 10 to 1, with links to books that you can read if you'd like to explore further. Of course Sebag's book, The World is hugely recommended. I talk about families from the Mongol steppes to the shores of the Aegean, from the High Plains of the Midwest, to the mountains of Iran. If you've got your own suggestions, let me know.
