John Haldon - The History of the Byzantine Wars. Gift book bound in leather.

"The History of the Byzantine Wars" is a unique combination of two works that tell the story of Byzantium - a rich and powerful country that flourished for thousands of years. The book is intended for those who are interested in history and culture, as well as for lovers of romance and adventure.

The book consists of two parts: the first part tells about the rise of Byzantium, and the second part — about its fall under the onslaught of the Ottoman Turks. The author describes the dark and bright moments of the history of Byzantium, its wealth and cultural heritage, as well as its struggle for survival against powerful enemies.
