About the author

Edward Gibbon

1737–1794

Best known for The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, this 18th-century English historian turned the story of Rome into one of the most influential works of history ever written. His style is witty, polished, and deeply curious about how civilizations rise, change, and break apart.
