拜占庭帝国大战略（思想会系列）
(us) Edward N. Lutwak
Relying on its own grand strategy, the Byzantine Empire was able to resist waves of enemies for more than 800 years, which is a miracle in itself. In the author's opinion, Byzantium's survival relied more on alliances, diplomacy, and containment of its enemies than on brutal military strength. This book demonstrates the author's point of view in depth through fascinating chapters such as "Religion and Statecraft," "Envoys," "Dynastic Marriage," and "The Art of Byzantine War," which also includes detailed descriptions of weapons, military tactics, and taxation.
