Syvanne\'s \"Military History of Late Rome 284-361\"
#14
I am almost finished now (tonight's bedtime reading!) and remain deeply conflicted over it. It appears to encapsulate some deep flaws over methodology and bias while also providing necessary correctives to certain inherited views. It also covers in depth a period not normally dealt with in military histories. I suspect that - to paraphrase Nennius - the book has become a heap of all that could be found . . .
