About the book

The eighth volume of Edward Gibbon's monumental history continues his vast account of the later Roman and Byzantine worlds. Gibbon follows the political, military and religious transformations that reshaped Europe and the Mediterranean after the decline of imperial authority in the West. His combination of sweeping narrative, detailed scholarship and elegant prose remains one of the great achievements of historical literature.
