Once Upon the Tiber: An Offbeat History of Rome

A lighthearted yet historically accurate history of Rome in English, illustrated by Mark Bennington, tells the story of the Romans from the founding of the city to the time of Romulus Augustulus. A pertinent Latin quote (with translation) begins each chapter, and notes explain which ancient author supplied the more unusual bits. A glossary of names, survey of Roman history, and index round out the features.
