Italy and her Invaders; Volume 2

In this groundbreaking work of history, Thomas Hodgkin explores the tumultuous period in the history of Italy known as the 'barbarian invasions'. From the arrival of the Goths and Visigoths in the fourth century to the Lombard conquest of the sixth century, Hodgkin traces the complex political upheavals that transformed Roman Italy into a patchwork of warring states. Drawing on a wealth of primary sources, including the letters and speeches of the great Roman leaders, this book offers readers a fascinating glimpse into a little-known period of European history.
