This book is essential for understanding history and classic historians. With a valuable afterword and including notes and an idex this can be used a a reference as well as a foundational work of wrld history. I recommend it for anyone who is serious about understanding history.

An essential work of European history, this classic study sweeps from the fall of Rome to the dawn of the Renaissance as it shows how Christianity, its leaders, and its institutions changed the face of Western culture
