This book presents the late Byzantine historical period (1025 - 1461 AD) in a narrative way, from the day after the death of the warlord conqueror Byzantine ruler Basil II "Bulgar Slayer" to the fall of the last Byzantine stronghold, the Empire of Trebizond, to the Ottoman Turks after the Fall of Constantinople in 1453.
The narrative is followed by detailed tables of secular and ecclesiastical leaders of Byzantium and its neighboring nations/states, as well as a comprehensive bibliography of independent Greek-language and foreign-language reference works, updated to the year 2002.
The work is primarily educational in nature as a university manual, but it also appeals to the history-loving reader who wishes to follow the late Byzantine history within the framework of a concise, compact reference guide based on findings from the latest research in Greek and foreign Byzantine studies.
The historical narrative is enriched with historical maps and a wide selection of illustrations.
