This book tells the story of the Battle of Adrianople, a crucial confrontation that took place on August 9, 378 AD on the plains northwest of the Roman city of Adrianople (present-day Edirne, in European Turkey). In this confrontation, the forces of Fritigern, chief of the Tervingi, faced the army of the Eastern Roman Empire, commanded by Emperor Flavius Julius Valens. The battle resulted in the annihilation of the Roman army and the death of Emperor Valens, marking a turning point in the history of the Roman Empire.
