Roman Lives - History of the Roman Empire by Dorothy Harrer

RICH ROMAN HISTORY This is a rich history of the Roman Empire told in a style that makes the book not only a resource for teachers and homeschool parents, but also a reader for sixth graders and older. In fact, this book was originally written as a reader for 6th graders who are entering a phase of inner skepticism and burgeoning personalities. Roman history is a more focused and serious study than the mythology of 4th and 5th grades, much like a sixth grader's year of change.  Generously illustrated with paintings by masters and maps depicting the era of Roman rule, the stories of the founding, the seven kings, the imperialism, the caesars, and the decline of Rome ring through these pages of the long-reigning Roman Empire. Master storyteller and author, Dorothy Harrer, describes with enlivening detail the rise and fall of this remarkable chapter in the history of Western Civilization. For Roman scholars right down to an enthusiastic student, this is a book not to miss.  DETAILS Roma
