This richly detailed chronicle brings to life the personalities of Attila the Hun, Alaric the Goth, Genghis Khan, and many other barbarian kings and chieftains whose rampages across Europe, Asia, and North Africa changed the course of history.
In this highly readable and authoritative book, author Thomas J. Craughwell draws upon the latest historical and archaeological research to reveal the impact of the barbarian invasions on the modern world: from the establishment of the English language, to the foundation of world capitals such as Dublin, to the introduction of gunpowder to Europe. Illustrated with more than 100 archival images gathered from around the world.

Thomas J. Craughwell has written about saints for the Wall Street Journal, Inside the Vatican, and Catholic Digest, among other national publications.
“With evident learning and great relish, Thomas J. Craughwell forges the story of the extraordinary change wrought in the world by the barbarians. He brings to sometimes horrifying life the onslaught of the Goths, Huns, Vandals—a particularly nasty crew—Angles, Saxons, Jutes, and others. With fascinating and little-known information on such barbarian luminaries as Attila the Hun and Olga, the murderous Viking princess of Kiev, this book is both wonderful history and thoroughly engrossing reading.” —Joseph Cummins, author of The World’s Bloodiest History and The War Chronicles: From Flintlocks to Machine Guns
