The battle of the Catalaunian Fields saw two massive, powerful
empires square up in a conflict that was to shape the course of
Eurasian history forever. For despite the Roman victory, the Roman
Empire would not survive for more than 15 years following the
battle, whilst the Huns, shattered and demoralized, would meet
their downfall against a coalition of German tribes soon after.
This book, using revealing bird's-eye-views of the plains of
Champagne and detailed illustrations of the opposing warriors in
the midst of desperate combat, describes the fighting at the
Catalaunian Fields and reveals the broader campaign of Hunnic
incursion that led up to it. Drawing on the latest research, Simon
MacDowall reveals the shocking intensity and appalling casualties
of the battle, whilst assessing the wider significance and
consequences of the campaign.
