Bruce Walker was kind enough to send me a copy of his book (V 3.0) and I have actually been reading it! Note it is not a stale project, the current issue is version 3.
I seldom read books, but have managed to work into the start of Chapter Six.
Dare I say this is a revolutionary inspection of political and social history?
Like most books that seriously address history, it sometimes becomes a bit tedious because of the mountains of data presented, but the reading has its rewards.
It will take me some time to finish the book, but I'm sure it will be worth my time.
If you are interested in a fresh prospective of political and social history, this is a book to examine.
Bruce has a site: here with info on his book and recent writings posted.
