Sir John Bagot Glubb

In these inspiring essays Sir John Glubb examines the human race over a period of 4,000 years and finds the same patterns of rise and fall of national greatness and all in the same timescale. Customer review: The best book you can read if you really want to understand history in a broader perspective. When you understand the pattern that has run through history for the last 4000 years, you will understand that our time now is not unique. Only if we understand the pattern of history can we avoid the collapse of the western civilization.
