Geoffr Greatrex "Roman Eastern Frontier and the Persian Wars: 363-628 AD, a Narrative Sourcebook"

This is an essential work for anyone who is interested in the Late Antiquity, Byzantine/Roman History, Sasanian/Iranian history, and the history of war and trade.

Prepared by two of the most well-known scholars of Late Antique history, the book is a delightful academic work which might appeal to the more serious lay audience as well. It escapes the usual dryness of sourcebooks and primary source collections by adding a narrative, providing background information for the events, and comparing the accounts.

The particular strength of the book lies in its use of the lesser known sources such as the Chronicle of Zuqnin or Zachariah of Mytilene.

In some cases, one can argue that better uses could be made of Middle Persian narrative sources and later accounts, although the credibility of those has been seriously questioned by many scholars.

Another possible issue with the book is the use of end-notes. While the decision of the editors to use them is understandable, the absence of extra notes as footnotes discourages one's reference to them and at times makes the work a little hard to understand. I seriously suggest a conversion of the endnotes to footnotes in the future editions.

Both Lieu and Greatrex should be thanked for this effort which is sure to become a classic and a handbook for all students.
