Rajesh Gupta

skillfully takes us on a tour of the old network of trade routes that, for ages, linked the East with the West. The book vividly recreates the sights, sounds, and smells of this incredible corridor of commerce, from the teeming markets of Chang'an (modern-day Xi'an) to the wealthy towns of Samarkand and the furthest reaches of the Mediterranean. Along the Silk Road, readers will encounter a wide variety of people whose interactions affected the fate of empires and the development of human civilization.

"The Silk Road" provides a new angle on the enormous effect of cross-cultural interactions on art, religion, science, and technology by drawing on a plethora of historical sources and archaeological discoveries. Mitchell's story is a fascinating reminder that the exchange of knowledge and things along these historic trade routes was crucial to the development of our modern, globalised society. This book is an enlightening and exciting trip through time, encouraging readers to explore the lasting impact of the Silk Road whether they are history buffs or armchair travellers.
