Schapen vallen nauwelijks op, we zien ze staan en rijden eraan voorbij. Maar wist je dat schapen de geschiedenis van de mensheid hebben gevormd zoals die nu is? Van de veroveringen van Dzjengis Khan tot het succes van de Medici-dynastie tijdens de Renaissance: schapen en hun wol hebben invloed gehad op vrijwel elk aspect van onze samenleving en cultuur. Sally Coulthard weeft in Een kleine geschiedenis van de wereld aan de hand van schapen het rijke en fascinerende verhaal van deze dieren tot een levendig en kleurrijk tapijt.

This book is the first comprehensive account of the wool trade through the whole of the medieval period. Within England it is concerned with the production and marketing of wool and with the ways in which the wool trade influenced the economic and political fortunes of different sectors of society. It describes and analyses in detail each of the periods of growth and decline in the export market. As well as explaining changes in the volume of trade it offers the first attempt to portray the distribution of the trade among individual merchants. As the scene widens Mr. Lloyd explains how England's relations with other European powers were influenced by mutual interest in the state of the wool trade. Another major theme is the influence which the export of wool exerted on England's economy as a whole.
