[eBook] [PDF] For The Edge of the Plain 1st Edition By James Crawford
A wide-ranging journey through the history of borders and an exploration of their role in shaping our world today.
Since the earliest known marker denoting the edge of one land and the beginning of the next—a stone column inscribed with Sumerian cuneiform—borders have been imagined, mapped, moved, and fought over. In The Edge of the Plain, James Crawford skillfully blends history, travel writing, and reportage to trace these borderlines throughout history and across the globe.
