This book is an excellent primer for those who may be detered by large works on this subject. It is easily read and provides a valuable help to Bible students who want a basic understanding of this period in world history which is so important in Bible prophecy and New Testament times.
It is written in three parts. Part 1 begins with the founding of the Roman Empire in 27 BC and concludes with its collapse in 476 AD.
Part 2 follows the establishment of the eastern leg of the empire, known as the Byzantine Empire until it was overthrown in 1453.
Part 3 follows the resuscitated Western Leg when the Church of Rome took power in Western Europe until the times when the book was written.
