A History of Rome to 565 A. D.
"A History of Rome to 565 A.D." by Arthur E. R. Boak is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This comprehensive text aims to provide a reliable source for students studying Roman history, covering significant events and developments from Rome's founding through its Empire's early centuries. It emphasizes the analysis of sources and historiographical perspectives, lending insight into the complexities of early Roman life and governance. The opening of the book introduces the author's intentions and context, primarily serving as a guide for college students taking introductory courses in Roman History.
