I read this along with my son. It seems to be pretty straight forward, covering the major points of Rome, its history and its contributions to our modern world. As with this whole set of Time Life books, there are many great photos and illustrations with good explanations which enhance the reading and make it a bit less dry. (

An engrossing account of the rise and fall of the Roman Empire, as told by the editors of Time-Life, from 753 B.C. to 476 A.D. A fascinating period of human history, further embellished by the lively telling and profuse illustrations. (
