Part Three Of Three Parts

With this eleventh volume of THE STORY OF CIVILIZATION, the Durants' great chronicle of four thousand years is brilliantly concluded. As in other volumes in this series, the Durants' describe advances in art, industry, thought, politics and science, all the while creating memorable portraits of the great men and women of the age. Portraying Napoleon more fully than ever before, the Durants' recreate the spirit of the turbulent epoch that bears his name, beginning with the French Revolution and ending with the fall of the Emperor. They take us from a feudal peasantry in revolt to the beginnings of the Industrial Revolution. An enduring classic, these volumes rank among the world's greatest and most popular works of the historian's art.

"Reading the Durants is like visiting a well-stocked museum...one advances effortlessly from room to room and subject to subject." (Saturday Review)
