Roman to Merovingian transition in Gaul

This is the definitive history of the transition from the Roman to Merovingian for social, political, and cultural life in Gaul. 

Sir Samuel Dill, Roman Society in Gaul in the Merovingian Age, MacMillan & Co, 1926.

"Society in Gaul in the Merovingian Age" by Sir Samuel Dill is a detailed exploration of social, political, and cultural life in Gaul (modern-day France and parts of Western Europe) during the Merovingian period (approximately 5th to 8th centuries). This is a scholarly work that examines the transformation of Roman Gaul into a Merovingian kingdom during the 5th to 8th centuries. 

Dill, an eminent historian of late antiquity, focuses on the social, political, and religious changes that shaped this transitional period, providing a detailed narrative of how Roman traditions persisted and evolved under the rule of the Frankish kings. As an author, he is known for his extensive examination of primary sources which are captured in the notes and reference section. There is also a comprehensive index if your search is for a particular topic.

The book cover has some lighter sections (see picture). The pages have a yellow tint from age. There are no markings in the book and all pages are present. 978-0049370029.

I'm asking $45.
