The Restoration of Rome - Barbarian Popes and Imperial Pretenders

This sequel to The Fall of the Roman Empire tells the story of three great imperial pretenders who attempted to revive the Roman inheritance in Western Europe -- Theoderic, Justinian, and Charlemagne -- and how, only by reinventing the papacy in the eleventh century, Europe's barbarians found the means to establish a new Roman Empire.
