Book Description
The Roman epoch is unsurpassed in history. What has endured to our own time is the empire's great cultural legacy--in law, language, architecture, and government--and the fascination of Rome's story. Ancient Rome presents the history and heritage of the remarkable Roman era, presenting an all-around introduction to the politics, people, culture, and everyday life of the world ruled by Rome. Unlike most general histories of the subject, it enables the reader to know the Romans not only from reading about them, but by hearing directly from them through the words of orators, philosophers, historians, poets, playwrights, and satirists.
Reader Reviews
This review is from: Ancient Rome (Paperback)
As a novice generally interested in ancient Rome, I found this book to be just what the doctor ordered to understand the complex history of ancient Rome. The books lays out the history of Rome and all of its complxity in realitively easy to read terms. It is a very "reader friendly" book for the person who wants an better understanding of how the empire was formed and how it operated. I actually thought that reding this would be a bit of a chore, but a necessary one to achieve a better understanding of the subject matter. I was pleasantly surprised to find it far from a chore to read. I came away with a working knowledge of the empire.
