"Until now... Alexandria, the greatest city of the region, has lacked a major study. With the publication of Christopher Haas's fine work, that gap in the scholarly literature has been filled... Integrating evidence from a wide variety of texts and the limited archaeological evidence, he has produced a vivid account of late antique Alexandria." -- American Historical Review
"A valuable and much needed contribution to the study of Alexandria and late antiquity... Haas has produced a vivid and interesting portrait." -- Classical Review
Haas explores the broad avenues and back alleys of Alexandria's neighborhoods, its suburbs and waterfront, and aspects of material culture that underlay Alexandrian social and intellectual life.
