The collapse and recovery of the Roman Empire

by Michael Grant

"In The Collapse and Recovery of the Roman Empire Michael Grant examines the reasons for the collapse of the third-century Roman Empire including analyses of the succession of emperors, the Germans and the Persians and conversely, the reasons for its recovery including discussions of strong emperors, a reconstituted army, finance and coinage and state religion." "The Collapse and Recovery of the Roman Empire presents a concise study of third-century Rome, which is a lavishly illustrated and lucid read, typical of Michael Grant's style and learning."--Jacket.
