Description
Publisher's Description of Penguin Historical Atlas of Ancient Rome
More than fifteen centuries after its fall, the Roman Empire remains one of the most formative influences on the history of Europe. Its physical remains dot the landscape from Scotland to Syria. Its cities are still the great metropolises of the continent. Its law and institutions have shaped modern practice, and its ideal of a united Europe has haunted politicians ever since. Fully illustrated and featuring more than sixty full- color maps, this atlas traces the rise and fall of the first great multinational state. It looks at its provinces and cities, its trade and economy, its armies and frontier defenses; follows its foreign ward and internecine struggles; and charts its transformation into a Christian theocracy and its fall in 476.
Category Description for Penguin Historical Atlases
A historical atlas is something like an encyclopedia that is organized chronologically. These reference tools show how maps change over time with text, illustrations, and photographs (some in color). The text is brief and interesting. Cultural information adds humanity to the maps as you learn how people lived during each period. Each volume has loads of maps and pictures! Even if certain volumes don't relate to your history program, these are a helpful resource for your home bookshelf!
