"This is a seminal work by a great historian. Two volumes written after 1940 when Braudel was a prisoner of war in Germany, working from memory. The breadth of this is astonishing.First submitted as a doctoral thesis to the Sorbonne in 1947, it established Braudel as a leader of the Annales school. The scale of his topic is breathtaking. Arguing that the Mediterranean is a sea sourrounded by mountains, he then goes on to explain how civilizations in the Mediterranean are shaped by their geography. Impressive."
"this book is a translated college text. very dry, but very interesting. it takes my time though, which is why i still haven't finished it since starting in 1999. *egads* It tends to be what I take with me on the airplane."
"Agonizing to read because it was 1200 pages of mountain formations (thats an exaggeration, only 400 pages were). Nonetheless a very interesting way to look at history!"
