A Recast of ‘Tides of History’

Everywhere around us are echoes of the past. Those echoes define the boundaries of states and countries, how we pray and how we fight. They determine what money we spend and how we earn it at work, what language we speak and how we raise our children. From Wondery, host Patrick Wyman, PhD (“Fall Of Rome”) helps us understand our world and how it got to be the way it is.

Audible subscribers can listen to all episodes of Tides of History ad-free right now. Join Audible today by downloading the Audible app.
