The Fall of the Roman Empire (Opposing Viewpoints Digests)

Rating:
Summary: Effective Summary
Review: Though short and aimed at high school students, this volume is an effective summary of various theories for why Rome fell. It will be very useful for high school and college students taking general ancient history courses. For adult readers, it's a nice, though brief introduction to the subject. For more in-depth coverage, see the author's bibliography in the back of the book.
