Product Description
The Fall of the Roman Empire. The fall of the western Roman empire was one of the most significant transformations throughout the whole of human history. A hundred years before it happened, Rome was an immense power, defended by an all-conquering army. A hundred years later the power and the army had vanished. Michael Grant identifies thirteen defects which he see as being responsible for the fall of the Roman empire. These, flaws within the society of ancient Rome set Roman against Roman, dividing the nation and thereby destroying its ability to resist invasion. Michael Grant explores the past with clarity and depth, and brings a fresh light to this endlessly intriguing subject.
