Book Overview

The Foreign Empire: 200 To 60 B.C. is a historical book written by Harold Waring Atkinson and originally published in 1899. The book covers the period of the Roman Republic's expansion from 200 to 60 B.C., during which it established an empire that stretched from Spain to the Near East. Atkinson provides a detailed account of the political, military, and cultural events that shaped this era, including the Punic Wars, the conquest of Greece, and the establishment of Roman rule in Egypt. He also explores the impact of Roman imperialism on the conquered peoples, as well as the political and social changes that occurred within the Roman Republic itself. The book is based on extensive research and draws upon a wide range of ancient sources, including the writings of Polybius, Livy, and Cicero. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in ancient history, Roman imperialism, or the development of the Roman Republic.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
