For anyone interested in the later Roman and early Byzantine Empire, and particularly in the way it was governed, this is a must. I am doing an M Phil in this period and have found this book excellent in sorting out just how the Empire was administered at this period. Kelly is a good, clear writer who brings to life his subjects.
