"The Story of Rome, From the Earliest Times to the Death of Augustus, Told to Boys and Girls" by Mary MacGregor is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This book narrates the legend and history of Rome, starting from its mythical foundation through to the reign of its first emperor, Augustus. The tale encompasses themes of bravery, ambition, and the struggles of a diverse people as they create and expand a powerful empire. At the start of the work, we are introduced to the founding legends of Rome, including the tales of the noble Lady Roma and the heroic Aeneas's flight from Troy. The narrative continues with the stories of Romulus and Remus, the twin boys raised by a she-wolf, who would come to found the city of Rome amidst conflict and divine omens. The chapters outline significant events and figures, including Romulus's rise to kingship, the subsequent establishment of warfare and alliances, and the influential events leading to Rome's expansion into an empire. The beginning serves not only to set the stage for Rome’s growth but also to emphasize its roots in myth and valor, inviting young readers into the rich tapestry of history and legend.
