Summary:

"With astounding narrative power,Colleen Mccullough sweeps the reader into the whirlpool of pageantry, passion, splendor, chaos and earth-shattering upheaval that was ancient Rome.

A towering saga of great events and mortal frailties, it is peopled with a vast, and vivid cast of unforgettable men and women <U+2014> soldiers and senators, mistresses and wives, kings and commoners <U+2014> combined in a richly embroidered human tapestry to bring a remarkable era to bold and breathtaking life."--Publisher.
