Description: Quercus Publishing(Non-Fiction, History) The Great Migrations From the Earliest Humans to the Age of Globalization by John Haywood Shop Villagelder's Books-N-Games From the dust jacketMigration is one of the defining features of the human race. No other species has ranged so far or colonized so many different environments (alone among the continents, wild and icebound Antarctica has no permanent human inhabitants). Human migration has also been incessant, with the numbers of people on the move increasing constantly, keeping step with the growth of the human population. It is its ceaseless nature that makes migration one of the great driving forces of world history, spreading technology and ideas, and creating and destroying nations and empires. In The Great Migrations John Haywood brings together 50 epic accounts of the mass migration of peoples, from the movement of homo erectus out of Africa one million years ago to the Aboriginal settlement of Australia around 50,000 BC; and from the barbarian invasions of early medieval Europe to the diaspora of African slaves in the early modern period.
