[John L Romano · Rating 3 out of 5]

Good glossary of early Rome

The book covers the main highlights of the Roman empire but does not go into any depth. It does a good job of showing the impact of the Roman civilization on today's cultures and laws.

[John Marsh · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book covers in brief format from Rome's beginnings to it's still existant influence today. This within less than 90 pages. For those of us with little knowledge and understanding of the history of Roman times this book is an easy read and a great introduction.
