Ancient History, Vol. 2: For Colleges and High Schools, a History of Rome (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from Ancient History, Vol. 2: For Colleges and High Schools, a History of Rome
Two years ago I gave to the school public a revised edition of that part of my Outlines of Ancient History, first published in 1882, which covered the Eastern nations and Greece. At the request of my publishers, I have since revised the remaining portion of the book, that relating to Rome, and now give it out as a companion work to the earlier volume.
From the preface of the original work, I repeat my grateful acknowledgment of indebtedness to the following writers and works: Arnold's, Mommsen's, Niebuhr's, Merivale's, Liddell's, Gibbon's, and Leighton's histories of Rome; Long's Decline and Fall of the Roman Republic; Smith's Rome and Carthage; Fronde's Cæsar; Guhl and Koner's Life of the Greeks and Romans; Hadley's Introduction to Roman Law; and Dunlop's and Cruttwell's works on Roman Literature. References to other authorities that I have used in the revision of the work will be found in place, in foot-notes. For the correction, or the further elucidation, of several matters relating to Roman antiquities, I am especially indebted to Lanciani's admirable work, Ancient Rome in the Light of Recent Discoveries.
