A review by allthebookblognamesaretaken
At the Edge of the World? 3500 BC–AD 1603 by Simon Schama

4.0

Though I found I already knew the majority of the information in this book, there's something comforting about that, like you're visiting with an old friend or friends you haven't talked to in a while. A nice refresher when it's easy to mix up all those Henrys and Edwards.

That being said, sometimes the author's transitions were terrible and you scarcely knew one monarch had died and you're suddenly reading about another.
