Reviewed in France on January 31, 2020
Un bouquin de référence sur le sujet, extrêmement bien documenté. Agréable à lire, couvre une période très large, très dense et de très nombreux aspects (économiques, narratifs, politiques, civilisationnistes) sans être ni lourd ni superficiel. Bien illustré aussi.
