About this listen
In this ambitious audiobook, best-selling author Sanjeev Sanyal chronicles the grand sweep of history from East Africa to Australia, conjuring the great cities of Angkor and Vijayanagar, medieval Arab empires, and Chinese "treasure fleets" in rich, vivid detail. He explores remote archaeological sites, maritime trading networks, and half-forgotten oral tales to challenge established historical narratives with fresh evidence.
Shining new light on medieval geopolitics and long-lost cities, The Ocean of Churn is a mesmerizing journey into the heart of a vibrant civilization.
©2016 Sanjeev Sanyal (P)2019 Random House AudioI’ve been a follower of Sanyal’s work for a while, though this was my first read/listen of any of his books.
My only gripe is that the narrator often mispronounced words, though this in no way ruined my experience absorbing this book.
This book sheds light on the lesser known battles of military history that were swept under the rug, and thoroughly covers Indian Ocean history from the formation of the Earth to the rise of Singapore.
Fantastic book; riveting
