Immerse yourself in the enthralling narrative of ancient Rome with The History of Rome (Ab Urbe Condita), crafted by the illustrious historian Livy (Titus Livius) between 27 and 9 BC. This monumental work chronicles the epic journey from Aeneas and the Trojans to the reign of Augustus, concluding with the death of Drusus, a contemporary of Livy. While only 35 out of the original 142 books have survived, this translation by Rev Canon William Masfen Roberts brings to life the grandeur and complexity of Romes history across six volumes, part of the prestigious Everymans Library Collection. Join us as we delve into the rise and fall of one of the greatest empires in history, filled with drama, intrigue, and lessons that resonate through the ages. - Summary by Leni
