About the book

The fifth volume of Edward Gibbon's monumental history continues the story of the Roman and Byzantine worlds as political power shifts and new forces reshape Europe and the Mediterranean. Gibbon examines emperors, invasions, religious disputes and the changing relationships between the surviving Roman institutions and emerging powers. His enormous range of historical material is combined with characteristically elegant prose and critical commentary, continuing one of the most ambitious works of historical scholarship ever written.
