Ten Leaders Who Changed the World

by Clive Gifford

Ten Leaders Who Changed the World Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Never has the concept of “six degrees of separation” been more vivid than during the tumultuous events of the 20th century. From Mohandas Gandhi to Joseph Stalin, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Fidel Castro, and Nelson Mandela, modern history is woven together in a tapestry of the interrelated stories of these leaders and the events they witnessed. Contemporary readers will understand as never before that history is built of subtle intersections that have great consequences.
