Written while he was a prisoner in WW II and the beginning of the Braudel school of history wherein you start with the geology, hydrology, weather and move onto transport, trade, technology and power bases of the Mediterranean up until Phillip II in the XVII century. In two volumes and despite the dusty title, an absolute mine of information. I have carried the two volumes on board since first venturing into the Med in 1977 and still find new nuggets of information and a wide-ranging history of just about everything. The focus of Fernand Braudel's great work is the Mediterranean world in the second half of the sixteenth century, but Braudel ranges back in history to the world of Odysseus and forward to our time, moving out from the Mediterranean area to the New World and other destinations of Mediterranean traders. Braudel's scope embraces the natural world and material life, economics, demography, politics, and diplomacy. Translated from French into English by Sian Reynolds.
