Description
George Finlay's History of the Byzantine Empire from DCCXVI to MLVII chronicles the rise, transformation, and decline of one of history's most enduring empires. Spanning from 716 to 1057 AD, this meticulously detailed account delves into the Byzantine Empire's political intrigues, cultural brilliance, and resilience amidst external threats from Arabs, Bulgarians, and Western powers. Finlay masterfully highlights the empire's pivotal role as a guardian of ancient knowledge and a bridge between East and West. This sweeping narrative captures the human drama of emperors, generals, and ordinary citizens shaping a civilization that influenced the medieval world and beyond. Crimson covers adorned with an embossed logo on the front, featuring intricate titles and rose motifs along the spine. Inside, a beautifully designed double title page adds a touch of elegance and sophistication to the presentation. Clean pages without any damage. Inscription says 'G. Boyce Allen'.
