ishouldbestudying commented on New Roman Empire by Anthony Kaldellis
Ok, paused the reading of this one for now. Got boring after Basil I reign and circling with 100 pages of iconoclasm and bickering about theology and lack of sources. Book is really interesting and light reading, I wish the author could pause more often on the narrative and focus on certain topics, but I understand he's constrained by the length of the period.

Clásico indiscutible de la historiografía argentina contemporánea, Revolución y Guerra aborda la trama de múltiples …
I love how this book goes from going trough very dense, prolonged explanations of the relationships between the revolutionary junta of Buenos Aires and the rest of the country, the army, the socio-economic repercussions...and then starts on likewise lenghty rambles on the downfall of esoteric fraternal organizations and the bankruptcy of deranged bussinessmen. Makes for an insightful yet dense read.
