CathcartExcellent read that covers about 1000 years of Roman empire history sorely neglected in books and courses of western civilization. Great readability and style of writing. A narrative overview of the events with enough context to make them sensible. I wanted a good first read on this subject and this book did a better job of it than I could hope for.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Great read.By wwgGreat read...if your at all interested in this time in history the information presented in this book will prove to be valuable.17 of 18 people found the following review helpful. Nice informationBy JetpackThis is a review of the free Kindle edition.This history of the Byzantines isn't very long (it says almost 4;700 locations; but only about 3500 of actual history); but I found it to be a very interesting summary of the Eastern Roman Empire. The fall of Byzantium is tragic; as the city was left alone.It really makes it clear what a debt the West owes to the Greeks of Byzantium.Easy to recommend if you like history.
