	ENNIS, MICHAEL. Byzantium. Atlantic Monthly Pr, 1989..Hardcover. ISBN: 0871132753. From Publishers Weekly: The hero of this long, densely written saga is the dispossessed Viking prince Haraldr Sigurdarson, a real historical figure who participated in the power struggles of the Byzantine Empire, where he served incognito as an imperial bodyguard. Most of the other characters are plucked from history too, among them vain Empress Zoe and her vacillating, guilt-ridden emperor husband; the power-mad monk Joannes, Theodora, Constantine and fiery Maria of the Robes. Journalist Ennis, whose first novel this is, elaborates on actual historic events to create a mosaic of conspiracies and betrayals, sexual excess, battle scenes. 1st Printing (stated) CLEAN!! No marks. Light wear on dust jacket. Near Fine in Near Fine DJ. USD 24.99 [Appr.: EURO 16.75 \| £UK 15.25 \| JP¥ 2206] Book number: HJ33338 Click here to order or inquire at BookMarx Books.
	FEUCHTWANGER, LION. Jew Suss. Carroll & Graf Publishers, 1984..Hardcover. ISBN: 0881840734. Feuchtwanger is probably the best historical novelist in the world - truly superb in erudition and majestic in his literary style. While this German Jewish writer is famous for his Josephus trilogy detailing the scenes of the destruction of the Holy Temple in Jerusalem, he has also written unequaled novels on Goya the artist, J.J.Rousseau the philosopher, and last but not least, on Benjamin Franklin. Jew Suss is about medieval Europe and the Jewish presence there, sometimes a very visible presense, sometimes kabbalistically hidden. A tour-de-force of the highest calibre." -- An Amazon Customer, Hardback - Pages clean, no marks. Top corners of cover and pages crimped due to improper storage.
