Description

The epic story of nomadic peoples on the move across history. Tracing the paths of wanderers over twelve thousand years, acclaimed travel writer Anthony Sattin recovers the stories of tribes who lived beyond imperial borders and created their own kingdoms and empires. These outsiders brought a cultural flourishing to Eurasia, enabling the Renaissance and changing the human story. With their embrace of multiculturalism, respect for nature's rhythms, and need for free movement, they left an untold legacy that reconnects us with our deepest mythology and unrecorded antiquity. Their stories are a testament to the power of human resilience and adaptability, and shed new light on the history of civilisation.
