The book is about the history of Rome from the beginning of Rome all the way to the fall of the empire. The book starts with a section on how Rome began. Then we are introduced to Roman Rulers We will then learn all about army life. This is followed my daily life in Rome. Lot os great information can be found in the book on Rome.
The book had nice full color illustrations. The glossary and index were helpful to me as I looked in the book for information for my social studies class.
I would recommend this book to others. It will be a great resource to add to the library's collection on Ancient Rome.
