"A skilled storyteller . . . Holmes presents a riveting account of Rome's decline" —Kirkus Reviews
Attila is a household name. But his true character and impact on the Roman Empire have always remained elusive. Until now.
In the first major work written about Attila in decades, Nick Holmes rewrites the story of Attila and Rome. Contrary to his brutal legend, Attila was a complex and captivating personality. A great warlord who despised ostentation, admired bravery, and valued loyalty.
He led his steppe nomads further west than Genghis Khan or Tamerlane. He nearly destroyed the Roman Empire. But his vast ambition undid him. This book is a must-listen for those interested in Rome, the Huns, and military history.
