An excellent account of the end of Roman Britain, one soldier's fictional story with extensive historical notes drawing on the author's research, re-enactment experience and experimental archaeology.

Sumner's long awaited new study, it is much longer & in more depth than the author's previous works, is beautifully illustrated and suddenly, in a word, indispensible.

Vegetius provides a key 4th century text full of the author's famous advice on how to maintain, restore and improve the Roman Army.

Eyewitness account of the fourth century army on campaign, by contemporary, Ammianus Marcellinus. A goldmine for students of the period.

Inevitably concentrating on evidence from the eastern empire, with useful glossary and photo's of well preserved textiles, footwear and tunic decoration.

Accessible introduction to the backbone of the Late Roman army.

Concise introductory overview to the political events and main players of Late Antiquity.

Multi-period, but including a rare look at Late Roman re-enactment.

Latin as a spoken language, with audio clips including some with Late Roman pronunciation.

A useful addition to the Late reference library for completists. The illustrations aren't as nice as Sumner's, but some good information and controversial points for discussion.

Excellent reference work for those seriously studying dress in England from the 5th to 11th centuries.
