Eurasia is a pivotal swath of landmass and waterways in the global world. Eurasia has been the scene of intense action in the past and the current century is no different, although some players have changed. This book replays the jockeying to dominate other countries in the twentieth century by Germany, the Soviet Union, and Japan. Eurasia birthed two world wars in the twentieth century extending them to the far reaches of the globe, with the United Kingdom and United States playing pivotal roles in stemming autocratic rule. The author looks at the twenty-first century as Russia and China flex their autocratic muscles and turmoil continues in the Middle East. The author speculates on how things might shift in the world as Russia, China and other countries deploy rapidly changing technology and warfare superiority in the autocracy vs democracy race. He demonstrates in his book that while geography matters, equally so does strategy. This book is a decent compilation of what has happened in the past. It presents a picture of what could happen as autocratic and democratic ideologies play out on the world stage, although I was hoping for a more definitive prediction from the author's viewpoint. Many thanks to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review this book.
