In his book entitled "The Fall of Constantinople 1453" by the eminent British medievalist Steven Runciman presented the circumstances, course and consequences of the fall of the city of Constantine the Great, previously known as Byzantium.

In his not-very large book, entitled "When Our World Became Christian: 312 - 394", the French historian Mr. Paul Veyne told his readers the story of the takeover of power in the Roman state by the then-new Christian religion. The topic itself raised in the discussed study is extremely interesting and it is good that the author did his work diligently and expertly analyzed the historical sources available to him, telling us about incredibly turbulent times from Constantine to Theodosius - both called "The Great" by posterity.

The whole book is not only an efficiently written and very interesting story about Gaius Julius Caesar and his turbulent fate, which continues to fascinate successive generations of politicians, historians and history lovers.

The book "Belisarius: The Last Roman General" by Ian Hughes is a very interesting position about the famous Byzantine commander who recaptured part of the lands of the former Western Roman Empire from the barbarians and implemented the ambitious plans of Emperor Justinian I, who wanted to rebuild the Roman Empire.
