I talk to Eric Halsey about his new book State Builders from the Steppe: A History of the First Bulgarian Empire.In it he chronicles the rise and fall of the Bulgars as they arrive in the Balkans and forge a state that would be a thorn in the Byzantine side. I thoroughly recommended the book. It’s well researched, easy to read and it’s nice to hear about a subject so intimately entwined with Byzantine history from a different perspective.Find the book on Amazon or check out the <a href="http://bghistorypodcast.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Bulgarian History podcast</a> where Eric takes the Bulgarian story all the way to the present.&nbsp;<hr> Hosted on Acast.
