>how many pages can you read in a day
Depends on the book. I read at an average of 550 words per minute, about double average, so if I force myself to sit down and actually read, I can finish multiple books a day.

>Any tips for reading faster
Honestly, if you have a mobile device or tablet, grab the Kindle app and use Word Runner. It increases my reading speed from 550 WPM to the ballpark of 650 or so. When I first started using it I was around 400 WPM as well, so it definitely helps you speed things up.

Actually two different books, Napoleon A Life is his rewrite, its similar but rewritten.

I'm 10 hours into it, out of 30 hours, audiobook of course. It's very good, the reader has a good british accent and reads the french parts very well. It's quite biased in favor of Napoleon but fuck he was an amazing man.

Currently reading this. It's alright but Gates' review of it was pretty spot on.

https://www.gatesnotes.com/Books/Why-Nations-Fail

In particular, the word 'elite' is used a lot and never really defined. It seems to be implied to be: a beneficiary of political patronage or clientelism, which isn't really accurate. I prefer Political Order and Political Decay by Francis Fukuyama (I know, I know. But he has done an about-face since End of History. Nobody BTFO'd him more than himself). But Why Nations Fail does fill in some gaps that I broadly agree with. Institutions and their incentive structures have a profound effect on a nation's success.

Eurocentrism aside, why are the Brits the best historians?

>>1765757
Would you say it's an easy read?

>>1765790

I guess so. It divides incidents into small sequences, so you don't get swarmed by names. Every page or two is one sequence of shit hitting the fan.

Makes it quite easy to skim backwards and forwards to understand various periods of the Empire in its final decades.

>>1765860
Do you need to have a comprehensive knowledge of the origins of the Ottoman Empire?

>>1765875

I don't have any. It's interesting to me because the period in concern saw the rise and formation of several modern states in the Middle East.

Its ok. Not really the level of detail I wanted. Skips over most of the consulate years in favor of a brief summary and sums up his leadership style with a few choice sentences and moves on.

I would call it a good intro to Napoleon for sure with little BS or attempts to make it a thesis like that new Goebbels bio that attempts to psychoanalyse him.

A lot of historiography of Austria is pretty harsh because for much of the 20th century people shat on it to try and emphasize how much better things are now that it's gone.

I'm reading this right now, and it's a refreshing change of pace - helps blow the "crumbling shithole jail of nations" meme out of the water.

I read it for my World History course in Utrecht. It’s a pretty good read.

“A brilliant synthesis of world history by distinguished father-and-son historians, organized around the theme of unfolding webs of human connection. All of humanity today lives in a "unitary maelstrom of cooperation and competition," and the global spread of ideas, information, and experience constitutes the overarching structure of human history. William McNeill is one of the great masters of world history, and J. R. McNeill has pioneered the study of environmental history. The collaborative result is a vivid and illuminating vision of the human experience spanning 12,000 years. The first human webs of our distant ancestors were formed through the rise of speech, migration, and primitive agricultural groupings. Metropolitan webs became integrated into the "old world web" connecting Eurasia and North America, and in the last century, local and regional webs have merged into an increasingly dense cosmopolitan web. Driven by the search for efficiency and advantage, humans have engineered increasingly complex social organizations creating the wealth and power -- but also the inequality and societal antagonisms -- on display today.” - G.

Kennedy was always being pulled by outside forces, his problems began when he began to move against those forces and make his own decisions based upon his conscience.

>>1783256
>but he kept getting pushed towards war while trying to rein it back in
He objectively chose poorly in some cases, though. In the case of Vietnam in particular, had the intervention come when McNamara or Thompson wanted, Vietnam would have been much better off. Instead, U.S. politician's like Kennedy and Johnson hemmed and hawed and the U.S. and South Vietnam were in a far worse position when war inevitably broke out in '65.

I would like some recommnedations on:
- Doggerland
- Minoans
- Germanic tribes during Roman era
- Carthage (tell me which out of pic related is not superintroductory adn what their focus is directed to)

I am completely noob in history, but I've wanted to dive into ancient history for quite a while now, starting with ancient greece, following with roman history. Need some entry-level books to kickstart.

You're welcome. There should be way more of these types of threads in general.

Anyone know any good books on the IRA during 1913-22 ish. Preferably focusing on Women if you guys have read any of that stuff (pls no bully its a really understudied area that im doing for my dissertation).

Can you recommend anything about Carthage not directly relating to the fall?

I'm also rather interested in books specifically about Carthage. Reading The story of civilizations right now and it's covered but not as a primary focus.

Unfortunately no, the only book on Carthage that I have read was not very good, so Im not going to recommend that one.

It's pretty bad.

Bump

Why so focused on the speed of reading? Isn't the point to absorb the book slowly and let it sink in naturally? There's no enjoyment or fulfillment in required or rushed reading.

A.J.P Taylor's book on the Habsburg is very good

Really enjoying this moment, knew very little about the Pacific. I love all the stories of trade.

Discusses everything from the migrations away from Taiwan, Nan Madol, Indonesian Sultanates and the VOC, Japanese and Canton Pirates, Hawaii, The Spanish Lake, Australia and New Zealand, and the world wars.

I've even had people on the Tube ask me about the book. Pretty grills too!

Any good books on Prague? The ones in my local library are too subjective (written by jews who go back and start the whole love/hate relationship with it because Muh WW2)
Not a werhaboo? Just want something more objective

I'm reading "At the Dark End of the Street". It's about sexualized violence's role in the Civil Rights Movement. I'd strongly recommend it. It's incredibly gruesome.

Newfag at books here. Don't like novels, story books, fiction, biography and the like rather the manual and record type history books, especially if it's military themed. Kind of like textbooks. Is "Engineers of Victory" by Paul Kennedy entry-level trash here?

Does anyone know some good books about the trend of human societies (I think Guns, Germs, and Steel is a book in that category, but I've heard bad things about it).
