Immerse yourself in the fascinating narrative of ancient Rome with The History of Rome (Ab Urbe Condita), a monumental work by the historian Livy (Titus Livius), written in Latin between 27 and 9 BC. This enthralling account chronicles Romes origins, from the legendary arrival of Aeneas and his Trojan companions to the reign of Augustus, culminating in the death of Drusus, a figure from Livy’s own time. While originally consisting of 142 books, only 35 have survived to enlighten us today. Translated by Rev Canon William Masfen Roberts, this edition is part of the prestigious Everyman’s Library Collection, offering modern readers a captivating journey through Romes storied past. - Summary by Leni
