Requirements: .ePUB reader, 602 KB
Overview: VOLUME ONE – Julius Caesar to the restoration of imperial unity, AD 284.

Originally published in a single-edition hardback in 2005, few books before have explored the exploits, achievements, and notorious antics of ancient Rome’s imperial dynasties in such readable detail. This title sets out to describe in a highly readable narrative text the lives of every man (and a few women) who aspired to the purple, from Augustus in 27 BC to Justinian I, who died in AD 565—arguably the end of Rome’s classical period. Many are familiar with the descendants of Julius Caesar—Augustus, Tiberius, Caligula, and Nero—but how many readers know about Maximinus Thrax, Claudius II Gothicus, or the Gallic Empire of Postumus? Over two volumes, almost 120 emperors, usurpers, pretenders, and barbarian rulers of the period are brought vividly to life, illustrated by a mixture of drawings of their busts and coinage, and complemented by specially commissioned maps that clearly outline imperial ambitions and failures. “The Complete Chronicle Of The Emperors Of Rome” provides a history of political, social, military, and economic strategies of the western world’s most powerful and influential empire, and is an essential companion to anyone interested in, or studying, the ancient Romans.

VOLUME TWO – The Tetrarchy (AD 284) to death of Justinian (AD 565) is available separately.
