Softcover. Condition: Good. Reprint. "A lively popular history of an oft-overlooked element in the development of human society" (Library Journal)--walls--and a haunting and eye-opening saga that reveals a startling link between what we build and how we live.For thousands of years, people have built walls and assaulted them,admired walls and reviled them. Great walls have appeared on everycontinent, the handiwork of Persians, Romans, Chinese, Inca, Ukrainians, and dozens of other peoples. They have accompanied the rise of cities,nations, and empires. And yet they rarely appear in our history books. In Walls, David Frye makes a powerful case for rewriting history. Drawing onevidence from around the world, as well as his own experiences onarchaeological digs, Frye takes us on a provocative and occasionallyhumorous journey across windswept deserts and grassy, Northumbrianhills. As Frye guides us through a maze of exotic locales, investigating the coldest of cold cases, he gradually exposes a broader story withimplications for the present as well as the past. The history of wallsbecomes more than a tale of bricks and stone; it becomes the story ofwho we are and how we came to be.

Paperback. Condition: New. A clean crisp well preserved 2019 Scribner Books softcover in a fine tight binding. Little to no shelf wear. Text is bright and free of marks or underlining. Fast shipping in a secure book box mailer with tracking. "A lively popular history of an oft-overlooked element in the development of human society" (Library Journal)--walls--and a haunting and eye-opening saga that reveals a startling link between what we build and how we live.With esteemed historian David Frye as our raconteur-guide in Walls, which Publishers Weekly praises as "informative, relevant, and thought-provoking," we journey back to a time before barriers of brick and stone even existed--to an era in which nomadic tribes vied for scarce resources, and each man was bred to a life of struggle. Ultimately, those same men would create edifices of mud, brick, and stone, and with them effectively divide humanity: on one side were those the walls protected; on the other, those the walls kept out. The stars of this narrative are the walls themselves--rising up in places as ancient and exotic as Mesopotamia, Babylon, Greece, China, Rome, Mongolia, Afghanistan, the lower Mississippi, and even Central America. As we journey across time and place, we discover a hidden, thousand-mile-long wall in Asia's steppes; learn of bizarre Spartan rituals; watch Mongol chieftains lead their miles-long hordes; witness the epic siege of Constantinople; chill at the fate of French explorers; marvel at the folly of the Maginot Line; tense at the gathering crisis in Cold War Berlin; gape at Hollywood's gated royalty; and contemplate the wall mania of our own era. Hailed by Kirkus Reviews as "provocative, well-written, and--with walls rising everywhere on the planet--timely," Walls gradually reveals the startling ways that barriers have affected our psyches. The questions this book summons are both intriguing and profound: Did walls make civilization possible? And can we live without them? Find out in this masterpiece of historical recovery and preeminent storytelling.
