Book Details
First Sentence
"Saint Jerome (his Latin names, Eusebius Hieronymus, derive from the Greek and mean "devout" and "of sacred name") (fig.1) was born around A.D. 345 of the well-to-do Christian parents at Stridon, in Dalmatia, a town so efficiently sacked by the Goths (in 379 perhaps, after they had shattered the imperial army at Adrianople) that we can be fairly sure only that it was in what army is today Yugoslavia and within comfortable reach of Aquileia, the large commercial, military, and administrative port at the head of the Adriatic."
