Something has been already told in previous posts. I personally consider Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire as a very valuable reading despite the book is more than 200 years old. I think too that Gibbon is one of first "modern" historians. The book is definitely worth reading.
I am happier than Virilis, because I have Czech translation.
Having completed reading of Decline I regret the fall of the Roman Empire.
