Step inside ancient Rome, where emperors ruled continents, gladiators fought to the death, and mighty legions built an empire of more than 60 million people. From marble palaces to filthy slums, from scientific breakthroughs to brutal executions, Rome was a civilization of astonishing contrasts — and unbelievable ambition.

This fast-paced, immersive book reveals how a tiny settlement on the River Tiber rose to dominate the ancient world. Discover the conquests, the culture, and the bloody power struggles that shaped history — and left a legacy that still defines our laws, architecture, language, and politics today.

The excess of Caligula and the terror of Nero
How Rome won an empire — and the dazzling cities it built
