I’ve since read a lot of valid criticism about the book, so unfortunately best to treat this a bit more as entertainment / messy theorizing than purely factual. Still, I absolutely loved this when I read it and it put me on a path to read all sorts of history, evolutionary biology, and linguistics books.

Not quite as good as Guns, Germs, and Steel, but was still a great read.
