Description

In this captivating volume, British historian J.H.B. Masterman (1867-1933) presents a concise yet insightful exploration of the first four centuries following the fall of Rome. He delves into the life of Theodoric, the Ostrogothic king striving to bring stability to a fractured Italy, the rise of the Franks under Clovis, and the revitalization of the Eastern Empire led by Justinian and his formidable general, Belisarius. As the narrative unfolds, we witness Charlemagnes heirs embroiled in power struggles, while Masterman vividly depicts the chaos of the era, with Norse raiders ravaging river valleys and the relentless Saracens plundering from the south, alongside the fierce Magyars threatening from the east. - Summary by Pamela Nagami
