From the Back Cover
This magisterial survey, spanning over 1,300 years, is widely acclaimed as the best single–volume history of Rome. The new edition continues to combine political overview with a balanced analysis of social and economic change, and religious and cultural life. Particular emphasis also remains on the importance of interpreting the varied source material and, especially, literary evidence. The second edition has been updated following research among users of the first edition. It now incorporates a number of improvements, including: Extended treatment of the causes of the First Carthaginian war, and of Hannibal′s purposes on the eve of the Second. Dramatically expanded coverage of late Republic period. A new section on the Roman family and the so–called ′emancipation′ of women. A ′Guide to Greek and Roman Writers′. With an updated ′Guide to Further Reading′ and two completely new maps, the second edition of A History of Rome will remain the one indispensable volume for those interested in the history of the Roman period.
