The Complete Roman Collection - Rome – it was the greatest empire the world has ever known, and it endured for more than 700 years before finally being destroyed from within by its own immorality and unbridled ambition. Once a Republic, Julius Caesar turned it into an Empire ruled by a succession of emperors who proved the maxim that "absolute power corrupts absolutely." The Complete Roman Collection includes every seminal work on ancient Rome including Suetonius' "The Twelve Caesars" and Tacitus' "The Annals of Imperial Rome."
