Belisarius: War, Empire, and the Last Roman Reconquests (Forgotten Makers of History) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

One of history’s greatest generals fought Persia, crushed rebellion in Constantinople, destroyed the Vandal kingdom, reclaimed Rome, survived the brutal Gothic Wars, and came closer than almost anyone to restoring the lost western Roman world. Yet behind the victories stood a man trapped between war, politics, imperial ambition, and the dangerous favor of Emperor Justinian. From desperate sieges and impossible campaigns to betrayal, rivalry, and the legends that transformed him into a tragic hero, this is the gripping story of Belisarius, the commander who carried Rome’s armies into one final age of conquest.
