The book centers on the reign of Emperor Heraclius of the Byzantine Empire, detailing his rise to power and the challenges he faced during a tumultuous period for the empire and its Christian Greek populace. The opening of the work introduces Emperor Heraclius as a pivotal figure who saved the Byzantine state from significant dangers through remarkable virtues, including military and political genius, as well as deep religious devotion. The narrative begins with a discussion of the political and military context of his time, highlighting the dire straits faced by the empire due to internal conflict and the external threat from the Persians.
