Fall of Rome
The city of Rome has been known as a city of splendor in which no other city in the then known world could compare. Rome had been the chief city in the western world, enriched by wars, and by vast profits, which came from controlling the destinies of other lands and peoples. Rome was the center of the Roman Empire and of civilization. Much of Tome lavished on the wealth, elegance, luxury, and imaginable extravagance. In this well-written and well-researched special history book, the author F.R. Cowell, succeeds in making Life in Ancient Rome alive and dynamic. The combination of historical fact and detail with the use of supplementary illustrations makes this an easy to read and useful book for students or just about anyone to explore and learn about the classics of Rome as well as the 20th century Rome. Overall, Life in Ancient Rome is a good book to get someone familiar with the once greatness of Rome. Whether you are inquiring about with rise and the growth of the city or you want to know about the meals, food, and drink, this book outlines all the common facts of roman life and explains and illustrates it in great detail.

There is also an illustration to show what the Romans used to scraped and remove bodily impurities that they would throw off as they sweat. I feel that the way he compared roman books and reading to the way the United Stated is today made this section of the book much easier to related to roman times. He compared it to the united Stated where personal expenditure on books is deplorably low. when they thought nothing of medicine and only of nutrition diet, I will like the way the author explains the Roman medicine practiced from the very fist century and gives the reader examples as the years of Roman times passed. The author gave examples from the first century A. I like the way the author pointed out that the Romans thought that their splendor fails to do them justice to the impression they must have make to all who saw them. Even though it wasn't an adequate amount of information, I still found it entertaining to read of the Roman astrology and the mixed faiths. I felt that his description of the way Roman slaves were treated was really no different than the way any other slaves would have been treated anywhere else.
