Assanitations - The Altered The Course of the World

Ancient, Medieval and modern histories of the world are replete with assassinations; both successful and aborted, throwing up examples of state or government sponsored killings of head of states or movement. The element of a dire deed - a forbidden act carried out possibly by the state or by people in power - the whiff of intrigue and the suspense of a possible conspiracy being played out or the speculation of who might be behind the conspiracy, are indeed gripping to the reader. In all the intrigue and suspense of the actual assassination, we may forget the man or women and their role in world history. What has been explored in the pages of this book is the influence the individual and his or her life's work have had on world history.
