Much more than a fascinating lecture, it's a trip back in time to delve into the different peoples warring in the area of Byzantium in the Eastern Roman Empire until Byzantium collapsed in the eleventh century. It's obviously well researched but not dry or lifeless. It is helpful to have maps on hand, even if they are modern.
Narrator Martin Carroll has not only the perfect natural voice, but a gift for cadencing to add to appreciation of the text.
