Ancient Rome: The Rise and Fall of An Empire, 753 BC - AD 476

by Patricia Southern

To her already impressive CV of books popularising Roman history Patricia Southern adds this rather traditional narrative of Rome, ab urbe condita to the abdication of Romulus Augustulus. The focus is overwhelmingly political and military, but the clear and witty style means that you never feel that you are simply reading an endless list of emperors, battles and usurpations. 381p col pls (Amberley 2009)
