Interesting read. This new book makes academic research from the 20th century and later available to everyone, demolishing the myths non-Roman elites like Geoffrey and descendants told about themselves. _Fall of Civilizations_ is a terrific resource. I've learned a lot of fascinating ancient history beyond the Mediterranean world from it.
