AGE OF REVOLUTIONS Progress and Backlash from 1600 to the Present

by | Read by Fareed Zakaria

History • 13 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2024

History lovers, rejoice! This audiobook is for you. As it surveys the major and sometimes minor revolutions of the past 500 or so years, Fareed Zakaria takes the listener through their causes and effects. Many of these upheavals, he says, changed the world in ways both obvious and surprising. It may take the listener a bit of time to get used to Zakaria's Indian accent, but this in no way detracts from the Western-leaning history he recounts. This listen includes many interesting asides, such as why the Arc de Triomphe was never completed and why the Dutch once deliberately flooded their homelands. Despite a seemingly heavy emphasis on revolutions taking place in the West, this is a rewarding listen. J.P.S. © AudioFile 2024, Portland, Maine [Published: JULY 2024]
