## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Astoundingly Awesome!
*by I***E on 4 June 2025*

I'm lost for words to adequately describe this work from Simon Seabag Montefiore. I wouldn't have the first clue as to how to even start such a mammoth task. The research alone is daunting, to say the least.This is brilliant. An eye-opener, it's interesting, it educates, it saddens the reader and delights the reader.It has taken ages for me to read and digest, but easily worth the effort. The World is magnificent.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best read in stages
*by D***D on 9 August 2024*

This is without a doubt a monumental effort to write history in a different way.I gave 4 stars because it really is a brilliantly researched book.However...It does, at the start, read like the bible with all it's begats. It doesn't flow very wrll.For me it isn't a book to pick up and read continuously. Because tge sections are fairly short I read a few at a time then I go back to an easier read.There is also the issue that if not familiar with pre birth of Christ there are a lot of references to places and historical characters tgat there seems to be an assumption you should know.However, as said, huge tome, interesting, but give it time.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ WOW !
*by S***S on 25 January 2023*

The human race is not very nice at all. Simon has written a massive book on the history of the world, its a sort of horrible histories for adults. We are a nasty, horrid, murdering, blood thirsty race only interested in land acquisition and power and rape of the lands and people for financial gain and nothing will stand in our way. Nepotism, Machiavellian, despots, dictators, kings and queens, servants and slaves and revolutionaries . And as for the women, blimey ! Its all there and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it and learnt so much, history lessons at school were never this interesting or fun if you can call it fun. (there is wry humour in it) The sort of book to read while cringing and saying urgh quite a lot and it's sad to say the human race still has much to learn from the past. Thank you Simon its a wonderful book well researched and as always you write so well, I'll be buying more copies to give as gifts but I'm glad to say my copy was on kindle which I think was much more manageable. So what next Simon? how do you top that?
