The Vandals

This book provides a full account of the Vandals, re-evaluating key aspects of their society.

It covers their complex foreign policy, which combined diplomatic alliances and marriages with brutal raiding; their extraordinary cultural development of secular learning; and the religious struggles that threatened to tear the state apart.

The authors also examine the nature of Vandal identity from a social and gender perspective.

The book follows the Vandals' journey from central Europe to North Africa, where they established a kingdom that defied Roman hegemony and left a significant mark on history.
