Wickham's acclaimed history of the time that followed the decline of the Roman Empire - often seen as the beginning of the long dark ages - shows how this world, encompassing peoples such as the Goths, Franks, Vandals, Arabs, Anglo-Saxons and Vikings - lies at the heart of we understand ourselves now, and shaped modern Europe. Short, thick 8vo.
