Conflicts that changed the world - Rodney Castleden

Conflicts that Changed the World provides an insight into the major battles and the effect they had on the world. Listed in chronoligal order, the author leads us through ancient to modern conflicts and the domination and control of the military leaders involved.

Whether the conflicts took place on British soil or abroad, there are details of who the major combatants were, when the battle was fought, where the fight happened and why the conflict occurred.

The book is divided into two sections BC and AD beginning with the Battle of Megiddo in 1479 BC to the Battle of Actium in 31 BC. In the second part of the book it starts with the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest in AD 9 and ends with the Fall of Baghdad in 2005.
