About this listen

The Roman Empire may have fallen—but its legacy still shapes our world.

From a humble settlement on the banks of the Tiber River, Rome rose to become a colossal, unstoppable force. At its height, the Empire stretched across Europe, West Asia, North Africa, and beyond. Never again would the world witness such power and influence.

In this epic narrative, History Brought Alive presents a captivating dive into the legends, facts, and myths of Ancient Rome. Covering thousands of years, this audiobook brings structure and clarity to the vast and complex story of one of history’s greatest civilizations.

In Part One, you’ll uncover:

  • The timeline of Roman history—how it began and how it ended
  • The emperors, gladiators, and key figures who shaped Rome’s destiny
  • Daily life in Ancient Rome—what was it really like?

In Part Two and beyond:

  • The unmatched strength of the Roman military—its rise and fall
  • Fascinating tales from Roman mythology
  • The dramatic fall of the Empire

All of this and more, brought to life in an engaging, easy-to-listen format.

If you're looking for a definitive, accessible history of the Roman Empire—this is the audiobook for you.

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.
