The story of ancient Rome is one of the great tales of
human history. This richly illustrated book offers a
fascinating insight into the rise of Rome, which ruled
almost the whole known world, from Britain in the west
to North Africa and the Middle East. Over 1500 years
after Rome's final decline and fall, this examination of the
people, places and events of Rome's military and political
empire will absorb any reader. Over 470 magnificent photographs,
specially commissioned illustrations, family trees, maps,
battle plans and timecharts build up a panoramic picture
of the political strength of the Roman Empire and its
policy of ruthless conquest, in this highly accessible popular history of government,
warfare, military conquest, leadership and power in
ancient Rome.
Nigel Rodgers,
author, has written on history, philosophy and art,
including Life in Ancient Rome: People and Places.
Dr Hazel Dodge, consultant, is Louis Claude Purser
Senior Lecturer in Classical Archaeology at Trinity, Dublin.
