His sweeping narrative crosses the Mediterranean and the Atlantic, taking readers from the Middle East to the shores of America.



Trade Review
"A wide-ranging and detailed history . . . . This stimulating volume is perhaps the most complete history of population movements in Europe’s modern era and will find a place on the shelves of everyone who would understand the world in which we live now."---Derek Hawes, Journal of Contemporary European Studies
"Ther is careful to bring the people involved and the societies that receive them into the equation. The numbers are eye-watering and the time period involved staggering. . . . Essential reading." * Survival: Global Politics and Strategy *
"An eye-opening and comprehensive account of population movements over the last 500 years." * Paradigm Explorer *
