4 out of 5 stars Good overview of Byzantium   May 23, 2008
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

By taking a thematic approach to the Byzantine Empire, Ms Herrin illuminates some interesting areas. However, you will need to have some background of the history of the Empire if you are to properly understand the points she makes.
John Julius Norwich's 3 vol history is the perfect place to start.
