In the first half of the 2000’s I attended Providence College and earned an M.A. in History from that fine institution. Finally, after a few years, I’ve decided to formalize a portion of my studies by publishing a monograph.

It’s a historical work that focuses on the Burgundians of the period popularly called The Dark Ages (scholars prefer late antiquity or early medieval). For the Burgundians, it ended up dark indeed. They were crushed between Franks and Goths and, as is usually the case, the victors wrote the history. That’s why the history of the Burgundians is truly in the Mist and why I’ve attempted to reassess their role in the period. Besides the Burgundians, the book also deals with the Germanic people in general, their migration into Western Europe, the Fall of Rome and what came after. While it is full of footnotes, it is accessible to anyone interested in the period.
Thanks to entities like createspace, it is much easier to publish than it used to be. I also plan to release a Kindle version. A sample chapter can be found here. Don’t worry, I won’t be going on and on about it around here, just giving a heads up. For more updates, check out my personal site. Thanks for your indulgence.
