I don't have to read it. I watched the documentary series in history last year and I wanted to read the book. -

I like The Commanding Heights better as book on globalization. But neither of them is really that much like Guns, Germs, and Steel. Jared Diamond's "Collapse" is a bit like Guns, Germs, and Steel in taking the view that geography and environment predicts history, although it does not have the same overarching view of world history. -

Good book, but I prefer the Ishmael series by Daniel Quinn. I feel like a lot of these types of books tend to miss the even larger picture, which Ishmael really highlights. It's not about white people, it's about agriculture.
