What it is
A history from Ephesus in 431 to 594, covering the christological councils, the Persian wars, and an eyewitness account of the plague.
Why it lasted
The last of the classical church histories in Greek, and a first-hand description of the Justinianic plague by a survivor of it.
Where to read it
Public domain and free to read in full, though not held here. The archives below have it.
These open a search on each archive rather than a direct link, which is the honest way to point at an edition nobody here has checked line by line.
