Grainger offers a deeply empathetic account of the rise, fall, and rebirth of human civilization. 引发热议的历史大作，历史学家约翰-D.格兰杰以心述史，讲透人类文明兴衰与重生 This is a historical work that offers a detailed account of Constantinople's tumultuous history over 2,500 years, as it was repeatedly contested by successive dynasties and armies. Constantinople was a great city of immense strategic importance. Over the course of 2,500 years, it endured forty sieges and was captured three or four times. Nearly every power between the Atlantic Ocean and the Eurasian steppe attempted to seize the city, yet only the Roman emperors, the Crusaders, and the Ottomans ultimately succeeded. Even into the modern and contemporary eras, Constantinople has remained a city of captivating allure, known as the City of the World's Desire. British historian John D. Grainger, drawing on years of archival research and writing, vividly chronicles the details of the city's many military encounters. He reveals the vicissitudes of this ancient metropolis and provides a compelling answer to the question of why Constantinople suffered forty sieges and what made it so strategically vital. The book stands as an authoritative work in the field in recent years. 这是一部详细讲述君士坦丁堡在2500年中被不同的王朝和军队反复争夺的历史著作。 君士坦丁堡是一座伟大的城市，地理位置极其重要，在过去的2500年里，它被围困达四十次，被占领三至四次。大西洋和欧亚大陆草原之间的几乎所有势力都曾试图占领这座城市，但最终只有罗马皇帝、十字军、土耳其人取得成功。进入近代和现代，它依然是散发着迷人魅力的都城，被称为全世界的欲望之都。 英国历史学家约翰-D.格兰杰历经多年的搜集资料和撰写，将君士坦丁堡历次对外战争的细节娓娓道来，展现出一个古老城市的沧桑变化，也透彻地解答了为什么君士坦丁堡会遭受四十次包围，以及它具有如此重要的战略意义的原因，是近年来此领域的权威读本。", "item_img_path" : "https://covers2.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/7/21/311/802/7213118021_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "28.99", "online_price" : "28.99", "our_price" : "28.99", "club_price" : "28.99", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
