Summary

"One of the imperishable books of history." The History Book Club Review. This abridged edition makes the great German scholar's multi-volume work accessible to a larger audience. Rivaling Gibbon, Macaulay, and Burckhardt in its scope and power, it chronicles Roman society and government from the second century BC to the end of the Republic and rise of Julius Caesar and helped earn Mommsen the 1902 Nobel Prize in Literature.

Author Biography

Nobel Prize–winning author Theodor Mommsen (1817–1903) was one of the 19th century's greatest historians. A professor at the University of Berlin, he was for 50 years a member of the Prussian Academy of Science.
