The Vandals-a people often remembered as ruthless raiders-were far more than the myths suggest. Vandals: Masters of the Mediterranean tells the epic story of a kingdom that rose from the forests of Central Europe to dominate the western Mediterranean, leaving a lasting mark on history.

From daring migrations through Gaul and Hispania to the audacious capture of Carthage, this book reveals the Vandals as brilliant strategists, masterful sailors, and innovative rulers. It explores their military organization, naval supremacy, and the cultural, economic, and architectural legacies they left behind.

Through twenty immersive chapters, the book examines not only the kingdom's rise and fall but also the fate of the Vandal people, their adaptation under Byzantine rule, and the enduring memory of their deeds in historical and cultural narratives. Chroniclers painted them as "barbarians," yet Vandals: Masters of the Mediterranean uncovers a people capable of governance, innovation, and resilience.

This is the definitive account of the Vandals-a story of conquest, survival, and influence, told with rich detail and compelling narrative, transforming a feared and misunderstood people into one of the Mediterranean's most fascinating historical powers.
