Theodoric The Goth

Theodoric the Goth

by Thomas Hodgkin

Theodoric the Goth is a comprehensive and detailed biography of one of the most important rulers of the late Roman Empire. Drawing upon a wide range of sources, historian Thomas Hodgkin provides a vivid account of Theodoric's life and reign, from his early years as a hostage in Constantinople to his rise to power as king of the Ostrogoths. Hodgkin explores Theodoric's complex and often paradoxical character, his military and political achievements, and his role in shaping the course of European history.
