About the book

The sixth volume of Edward Gibbon's monumental history brings his sweeping narrative toward its conclusion, continuing the story of the later Roman and Byzantine worlds and the political forces that succeeded them. Gibbon examines the changing balance of power in Europe and the Mediterranean, including invasions, religious conflicts and the long transformation of Roman institutions. His combination of vast historical scope, elegant prose and critical analysis makes the work one of the enduring classics of historical writing.
