In this epic narrative, History Brought Alive presents an intriguing dive into Roman history, legends, facts, myths and much more. Covering thousands of years the study of Roman history is vast and complex. Much like the ancient Romans themselves, in order to study them, we need to follow structure and have an open mind.

  • Life in Ancient Rome - What was it like?

Then, in part two and onwards you will find;

  • Military - The Roman military was amongst the most powerful in the world. How did they get that way? The victory and defeat.
  • Mythology - Delve into the fascinating world of Roman mythology.
  • The Fall of The Empire

All of this, and much, much more in an enjoyable to listen format!So if you're looking for a definitive history of The Roman Empire, then this is the audiobook!

Soulless - Felt like a book written and read by Artificial Intelligence

Full of generic phrases like: “Most Romans awoke early in the morning and ate whatever was available…”

Felt like a book written and read by Artificial Intelligence. Covered facts but in a really wooden and uninteresting manner. Frustrating considering how interesting the subject matter is.

Didn’t finish this book which is rare for me.
