Media Reviews

An easily approachable volume that leaves the reader with an understanding of the broader processes of Roman history and fulfils the authors' aim to engender interest in the wider Roman world ... the book will be a valuable resource for students of Roman history and in doing so offers plentiful ground for further reflection on the enthralling history of a small town which became the capital of the greatest and most enduring empire history has known. Bryn Mawr Classical Review
