Folio Society - The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire: The Turn of the Tide - Volume 1 - In Slipcase

Descripción:

A Folio Society edition of The Turn of the Tide, the opening volume of Gibbonâ s monumental history, offered with a worn slipcase. This instalment follows the Empire through political instability, military pressure and the gradual weakening of its institutions, all conveyed in Gibbonâ s elegant, ironic and meticulously researched prose. His blend of sweeping historical narrative and sharply drawn character portraits keeps the work authoritative and engaging. The book itself retains Folioâ s usual high production standardsâ "clear typography, quality paper and a sturdy bindingâ "while the slipcase, though worn, still provides protection and completes the edition for collectors.
