Sumérgete en la fascinante historia de Roma, desde sus humildes comienzos como un pequeño asentamiento en la Edad de Hierro a orillas del Tíber, hasta convertirse en el centro de un imperio que dominó el mundo occidental. Michael Grant, reconocido historiador clásico, recrea la evolución de esta asombrosa ciudad y comunidad, describiendo a los individuos y eventos que hicieron de Roma una potencia política y cultural. Explora las circunstancias dramáticas de su eventual declive y caída, ofreciendo una visión completa de la civilización romana.

Michael Grant was an English classicist, Professor of Humanity at the University of Edinburgh, numismatist, and author of numerous books on ancient history. His 1956 translation of Tacitus's Annals of Imperial Rome remains a standard of the work. Having studied and held a number of academic posts in the United Kingdom and the Middle East, he retired early to write full-time. He once described himself as "one of the very few freelancers in the field of ancient history: a rare phenomenon". As a populariser, his hallmarks were his prolific output and his unwillingness to oversimplify or talk down to his readership. He published over 70 works.
