Charles Morris’s Historic Tales series was one of the most popular educational works of the late nineteenth century, bringing dramatic episodes from world history and legend to a wide audience. Volume 11 covers ancient Rome — from the legends of Romulus and the kings through the Republic and into the Empire — retelling battles, betrayals, and heroic deeds with the narrative energy of a born storyteller.
Factual and mythological strands are interwoven as they were in the ancient sources themselves, making this an entertaining entry point to Roman history and legend. This free EPUB is cleanly formatted and ready for any device.
