But it will also probably lose some of the Observer's regular customers when they find out how difficult it is to get a paper out of the things in one piece. [Photo by Drew Clark].

Head publishes "Imperial Twilight," the third volume in the field of Byzantine history by WCU professor Constance Head, has just been published by Nelson-Hall Inc. of Chicago. Sub-titled "The Palaiologos Dynasty and the Decline of Byzantium." the 210-page volume traces the history of the last ten Byzanitine emperors, all but one of whom bore the surname Palaiologos. The book begins with the accession Michael VIII in 1258 and ends with the death of Constantine XI, who was killed in battle when the Turks captured Constantinople in 1453 and brought an end to the Byzantine Empire. It follows on the heels of Dr. Head's "The Emperor Julian," published in Boston last year in the Twayne World Leaders series by G. K. Hall. Julian was the third Byzantine emperor, and ruled in the fourth century, while "Imperial Twilight" shifts the emphasis to a much later period in Byzantine history. Calendar .
