From Rome to Byzantium: The Fifth Century AD
Autor Michael Granten Limba Engleză Hardback – 12 feb 1998
Michael Grant's narrative is lucid and colourful as always, lavishly illustrated with photographs and maps. He successfully provides an examination of a comparatively unexplored area and constructs the history of an empire which rivals the former richness and diversity of a now fallen Rome.
