A geographical area, not a political entity, the steppe connects
the western and eastern parts of the Eurasian land mass. As such,
it is always open, subject to constant movement between Asia and
Europe. Warwick Ball tells the story of that movement from
prehistory to the present. From nomadic peoples to conquering
empires, from tales of Amazon women to art nouveau, and from golden
grave goods to the formation of countries that still exist today,
Ball shows how the steppe has continually shaped Europe's destiny.
Ultimately, he shows that the steppe and the movement of peoples
across it are so crucial that they question the very idea of
'Europe' as a separate cultural and historical construct.
