A synopsis and discussion of The Gunpowder Age: China, Military Innovation, and the Rise of the West in World History by Tonio Andrade.
Have you read Firearms: A Global History by Chase? Seems to tackle many of the same ideas addressed in this book. If you haven’t read, worth your time.
Sounds interesting, will check out.
I think I'll give it a go, thank you. The end of the text on chapter 16 seems to be cropped by the way - it ends "The result was a crushing"
Corrected, thanks - hope you enjoy the book!
This book was a huge eye opener for me. One of my favorites!
