The Global Atlantic provides a concise, lively overview of the
complex and diverse history of the greater Atlantic region from
1400 to 1900. During this period, the lands around the Atlantic
basin - Europe, Africa, and the Americas - became deeply
interconnected in networks of trade, cultural exchange, and
geopolitics that reshaped these regions and the world beyond. In
this accessible and engaging text, Christoph Strobel integrates the
Atlantic into world history, showing that the Atlantic oceanic
system was always interlinked with the rest of globe. From the
Mediterranean origins of slave-worked sugar plantations to the
Chinese demand for silver from American mines, The Global Atlantic
discusses key examples of these connections with clarity, enabling
students to understand how existing ideas and incentives shaped the
emerging Global Atlantic, and how these Atlantic systems in turn
created the world we live in today.
