This marvellous retelling of the most exciting stories from Roman history charts the rise and fall of one of the world's greatest empires.

Readers will experience the founding of Rome and the early battles with Carthage and Hannibal; meet some of the world's most intriguing historical figures, including Julius Caesar and Antony and Cleopatra; and discover the conquests of Gaul and Britain, before learning about the decline and fall of the Empire under the Huns and the beginning of the Dark Ages.

This is a fascinating and engaging resource for teachers and home schoolers which is used in the Steiner-Waldorf curriculum for 11–12 year olds.
