Alfred W. Crosby, Otto von Mering
The Columbian Exchange: Biological and Cultural Consequences of 1492
Paperback
(Greenwood Dec. 13, 1973)
The best thing about this book is its overarching thesis, the concept of a Columbian exchange. This provocative device permits Crosby to shape a lot of familiar and seemingly unrelated data into a fresh synthesis. . . . The implications of this interplay between novel biological and social forces are fascinating. Journal of American History
