Description
No marks or inscriptions. No creasing to covers, single crease to spine. A very clean very tight copy with bright unmarked boards, tanned page edges and no bumping to corners. Maps plus 421pp. Set in the 6th century, a time of conflict for the Eastern Roman (Byzantine) Empire which was threatened by Huns, Vandals, Goths, Saracens, Moors and Persians. But these hordes grew to fear and respect the name of Belisarius, horseman, archer, swordsman and military commander of incredible skill and daring. Belisarius led the Imperial armies wherever Emperor Justinian sent him. A novel based on historical events and people.
