An illuminating journey through the transformative centuries that shaped the destiny of the Roman world. From the chaos of the third-century crisis to the fall of the Western Roman Empire and the dawn of the Byzantine era, Rome's Twilight offers a vivid, authoritative exploration of one of history's most dramatic periods. This richly detailed account unpacks the political upheavals, social transformations, religious revolutions, and cultural shifts that defined the Late Roman Empire and laid the foundations for medieval Europe. Delving deep into the lives of emperors and generals, senators and soldiers, aristocratic women and humble peasants, this book reveals how an ancient superpower grappled with relentless invasions, economic turmoil, and evolving identities.
