Often mischaracterized as a time of darkness and decline, the so called 'Dark Ages' were marked by extraordinary change, turmoil, and transformation. Featuring an unrivalled collection of 90 specially commissioned maps, acclaimed historian and cartography expert John Haywood's new book brings to life the dynamic story of how a new Europe emerged from the ashes of the crumbling Western Roman Empire. He explores great migrations, the spread of Christianity, the rise of Islam, the emergence of the separate cultural identities of eastern and western Europe, and the birth of the leading nations of modern Europe. With vivid and detailed maps and compelling storytelling, Haywood brings to life one of the most misunderstood and pivotal eras in human history.‘This beautiful and impressive book fills a major gap in popular understanding of the Middle Ages, and indeed of Western history as a whole.
