Farnham, Surrey; Burlington, VT: Ashgate. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. Date: 2011. First Edition. Hardcover. 1409410986 . Xvii, 347 pp. Index. Maps, figures, tables. Octavo.

Specialist historians of the Byzantine successor states of the period, and of their most important neighbours, here examine the self-projection and interactions of these states, combining military history and diplomacy, commercial and theological contacts, and the experiences and self-description of individuals. This wide-ranging se ...
