The Grandeur That Was Rome: Outlines of Roman History (Honors History Series)

William C. Morey's Outlines of Roman History (1901) beautifully summarizes and encapsulates the political, military, intellectual, artistic, and religious history of Rome from its foundation to the fall of the western Empire. Mr. Kalb has modernized the original in this revised version. With completely redrawn maps, color images, a pronunciation guide, and two Florilegia containing primary sources in translation keyed to the Outlines by chapter, The Grandeur That Was Rome is an excellent resource for the advanced high school or early university student seeking a deeper understanding of our cultural heritage. It is the fourth installment in the Honors History Series, a projected five-year sequence covering the entire span of Western history.
