How Rome Fell, Death of a Superpower

How Rome Fell, Death of a Superpower

by Adrian Goldsworthy

  • HISTORY
  • 2009
  • HARD COVER
  • 531 PAGES

Goldsworthy (Caesar) approaches one of history's greatest questions -- how Rome fell -- with scholarship and narrative skill. He tells the story of an empire deteriorating from within as its rulers and institutions put short-term ambition over the good of the state.  (ITA151, $32.50)
