Know about the book -

Procopius and the Sixth Century is written by Averil Cameron and published by Routledge. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 1134764642 (ISBN 10) and 9781134764648 (ISBN 13).

Originally published by Duckworth and the University of California Press, Procopius is now available for the first time in paperback. Professor Cameron emphasises the essential unity of Procopius' three works and, starting from the `minor' ones, demonstrates their intimate connection with the Wars. Procopius' writings are seen to comprise a subtle whole; only if they are understood in this way can their historical value be properly appreciated. The result is a new evaluation of Procopius which will be central to any future history of the sixth century.
