Short Review: How conquest affected the cultures of the British Isles, Africa, Slavs & Native Americans. This is a statistics and macro level focused book on the historical development of cultures after conquest. There are lots of good historical details but very few stories. If you like your history as story, then skip this. If you like your history with lots of stats then this is pretty interesting.
