"A Short History of Byzantium" - there was a byzantine emperor, i can't quite remember the name, but his mother spooned his eyes out and cut off his nose so she could exile him and ascend the throne - it's a pretty good read, despite being historical - and relevant because some consider the byzantine empire to BE the roman empire.
