Excerpt from Constantine the Great: The Reorganisation of the Empire and the Triumph of the Church

N the following chapters, my object has been to tell the story of the Life and Times of Constan tine the Great. Whether he deserves the epithet my readers will judge for themselves; certainly his place in the select list of the immortals is not among the highest. But whether he himself was great or not, under his auspices one of the most momentous changes in the history of the world was aecom plished, and it is the first conversion of a Roman Emperor to Christianity, with all that such conver sion entailed, which makes his period so important and so well worth studying.
