Sections Include: The Emperor and Senate, The Roman Army and Navy, Marriage and the Roman Family, Romans at Home, Chariot Races and Gladiators, ... and many more! From David Long, the author behind Pirates Magnified, Egypt Magnified, Castles Magnified, and Ancient World Magnified, this book will inform and entertain even the youngest historian for hours on end.
A book that cant even get the physical descriptions of some of Rome's greatest emperors correct (Augustus is drawn as dark hair/skinned, when all the sources famously describe him as blond/blue eyed), and even Plautus is depicted as an African, when he was born in Central Italy.
A fun concept, but there are more accurate books to buy for your kids.
