About the book

Theodor Mommsen's A History of Rome traces the city's development from its earliest foundations to the sole rule of Julius Caesar. The growth of the Republic, struggles over citizenship and political authority, and Rome's conquest of the Mediterranean lead towards the crises that undid republican government. Mommsen gives institutions and personalities an argumentative energy that helped make his history a landmark of nineteenth-century scholarship. This abridged edition gives readers a substantial introduction to the rise of Roman power and the conflicts that shaped Caesar's world.
