"Norwich is always on the lookout for the small but revealing details. . . . All of this he recounts in a style that consistently entertains."--The New York Times Book Review In this magisterial adaptation of his epic three-volume history of Byzantium, John Julius Norwich chronicles the world's longest-lived Christian empire. Beginning with Constantine the Great, who in a.d. 330 made Christianity the religion of his realm and then transferred its capital to the city that would bear his name, Norwich follows the course of eleven centuries of Byzantine statecraft and warfare, politics and theology, manners and art. In the pages of A Short History of Byzantium we encounter mystics and philosophers, eunuchs and barbarians, and rulers of fantastic erudition, piety, and degeneracy. We enter the life of an empire that could create some of the world's most transcendent religious art and then destroy it in the convulsions of fanaticism. Stylishly written and overflowing with drama, pathos, and wit, here is a matchless account of a lost civilization and its magnificent cultural legacy. "Strange and fascinating . . . filled with drollery and horror."
--Boston Globe

A favorite with my dogs but didn't last long
Color: Fox-Crocodile, Color: Fox-Crocodile
These have been a HUGE hit with my aggressive chewers but after less than 3 months, this is all that is left of the poor fox and alligator. My youngest STILL plays with them like they are brand new. I will probably buy them again but wish they were actually designed for aggressive chewers as advertised. I would say it's more for the average chewer. 4 stars because it was a good purchase and a top favorite toy but just didn't last long.

Too Cute!!!
Color: Fox-Crocodile, Color: Fox-Crocodile
This was a pleasant surprise and especially for the price!!! You get a 2 pack of toys!!!! They are absolutely adorable and made to last!!! Soft and lightweight!!! Has a nice squeakiness which my dog adores. I appreciate that they are made to fold up and Velcro so they become very compact. You can store them so easily and/or slide in your purse, traveling bag or leave one in your car. They fold up to be the size of folded socks. I recommend.

Our pup loves it (to pieces)!
Color: Fox-Crocodile
Fun toy for our playful pup, but nothing indestructible. She finds a seam and in days, the toy is in bits. Lucky for us, she still enjoys playing with parts! Package of 2. One down, one to go!

Holds Up Well
Color: Fox-Crocodile
My dog loves this toy and after several months of heavy use he has yet to rip it apart like he's done with every other toy I've bought him. He has a hard time grabbing it with his teeth to play his usual tug of war games.

Cute
Color: Fox-Crocodile
I love the interactive toys, BUT my dogs are either too destructive or smart because they’ve ripped the little treat part, so I can’t hide stuff in there anymore. Otherwise, they still play tug of war with it. Probably better for smaller or lazy dogs.
