Excellent overview from the founding of the city
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
Well-known Byzantine scholar gives us a concise one-volume treatment of a broad spectrum of life in the Byzantine Empire. Commerce, religion, military service, literature and art, town and country life, the administration and the art of law all find devoted chapters in this easy to read volume. For many of the smaller details, readers will have to go to Bury or Gibbon et al, but for an incisive survey into particulars, this book will serve.

Excellent overview of Byzantine art from one of the world's greatest historians. Poor B & W illustrations, however.
