A History of Venice

first publication date:  1981

A History of Venice is a 1982 book by the English popular historian John Julius Norwich (1929–2018) published in the United States by Vintage Books. It is an omnibus edition of two books previously published in Britain: Venice: The Rise to Empire, Allen Lane (1977). Venice: The Greatness and Fall, Allen Lane (1981).Norwich had also previously published two volumes on the Normans in southern Italy (1967-70) and subsequently produced a three-volume history of the Byzantine Empire (1988-95). There is a fair amount of overlap between these subjects, with the Normans and Byzantine figures appearing in Venetian history. The Venetians, in turn, were important players in the sacking of Constantinople in the fourth crusade, and carrying off booty which was used to decorate St. Mark's Cathedral. Source: Wikipedia (en)
