I've ordered this one - I know our recent guests and recent novels tend to downplay Adrianople because so MUCh happened (most of it heart-breaking) after that great loss, and the West still had far to fall. But one can't help but think that, as your reviewer noted, this battle was the great "crack" that slowly led to the structure's collapse. And so sadly, because it was all totally unnecessary.
