Anyone who wants to understand Mistra or the history of the Peloponnese during the Late Byzantine era should read Lost Capital of Byzantium by the famous British historian Steven Runciman. Runciman first visited Mistra in the 1930s and made a study of it for the rest of his life. In his wonderfully written book, he discusses the decline and fall of this last outpost of Rome, as well as other subjects such as the sieges of the great castle of Acrocorinth, and the rise of modern Sparta. He treats his subject with deep knowledge and an obvious love.
