The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire (1776-88)In Edward Gibbon's 6-volume masterpiece, The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire (1776-88), the historian's art found a new master whose elegance of style and sweeping vision have rarely been matched. Ranging through 13 centuries, Gibbon's monumental work traces the course of two fairly distinct civilizations, that of the Roman Empire of the West and that of its successor, the Byzantine Empire centered on Constantinople.This book was created in Newton Press from the text found at Project Gutenburg, by me, Tim Lewis.
