Description:
On the cover:'In this ground-breaking book, Peter Heather proposes a new solution to one of the greatest mysteries of history: the strange death of the Roman Empire. From the bejewelled splendour of the imperial Roman court to the dripping forests of Barbaricum, Heather illuminates the panorama of the empire's end with a mix of authoratitive anaysis and great storytelling. He examines the extraordinary successes of the Roman Empire and, with a new understanding of its continued strength and enduring limitations, shows how Europe's barbarians, transformed by cennturies of contact with Rome, eventually pulled it apart.'
