History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire·volume 3
General Fiction罗马帝国衰亡史·第三卷
(english) Edward Gibbon
"The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire" is written from the time when Augustus proclaimed himself emperor and Rome changed from a republic to an empire until the demise of the Eastern Roman Empire. During this period, the changes of more than 1,000 years are captured in the book with great momentum. The book also records the rise of Christianity and Islam, a brief history of Persia, Arabia, Hungary, Russia, Mongolia and other countries around the Roman Empire, and even the war between Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and the Huns and the westward migration of the Huns. Accurate insights, careful layout, prudent judgment and doubts all make this book have significance beyond the times.
