The History of Rome, Books 01 to 08

Livy

• History
• Book language: English
• 546 pages

Livy's history of Rome in its first eight books moves from the legendary founding of the city, through the age of the kings, to the birth of the Republic and its early struggles. This foundational work by the Roman historian blends tradition, speeches and accounts of war, and is worth hearing as a vivid introduction to Rome's past as the Romans told it.
