Scullard's clear and comprehensive narrative covers the period from 133 BC to 69 AD, exploring the decline and fall of the Republic, and the establishment of the Pax Romana under the early Principate. More than forty years after its first publication this masterful survey remains the standard textbook on the central period of Roman history.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for people studying Classics at university.

Bought for my daughter who is studying Classical Studies at university. Yet another compulsory text book that’s really difficult to find at a reasonable price. She says it’s a really good book for her course and has been very useful. She would recommend it to anyone studying Classics or Classical Studies.

5.0 out of 5 stars The high point of Rome...
Reviewed in the United States on 14 March 2010

Rome from 133 BC to 68 AD is when everything important happens. Rome at its height, Rome with the great and powerful families, and expanding power. Rome of Glory, Gold and Passion. This is a simple history that tries to cover all the major, and minor, events in this timeframe. And it does a smashing job at it. 368 pages of social life, political backstabbing, military conflicts, business deals, and powerful leaders. The book really does focus on the change from Republic to Empire, showing us how the government institutions evolve, adapt and, in some cases, are completely replaced to fit the current needs of those in power. To understand the Imperial government you really do need to understand the inner workings of the Republic and this book does a great job in helping us to follow how one changes into the other. I would suggest it for any library on Roman History, Ancient History, or Political History.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent overview of late Republican / early imperial history
Reviewed in the United States on 28 May 2008
Verified Purchase
This is a very well written, well researched, history of the period. It is quite conventional, which is not surprising given its age. One minor drawback is the hero-worship accorded Cicero, which, given the necessarily short discussion of everyone else except Augustus, is disconsonant. Also, there is a notable socially conservative tone (lots of references to the decay of the family and the licentiousness of women) that pervades the book, as well as a shortage of interest in the minor characters (women, children and "foreigners" get short shrift). Finally, there is a serious absence of illustrations--maps, drawings, etc.--the map order issues of the first volume are resolved here by the total exclusion of maps.

But aside from these quibbles, and excellent introduction.

4.0 out of 5 stars Vae Victis.

Great read. Thorough. Sits on my shelf beside my primary sources as a nearly Perfect accompaniment. A great reference work while reading Tacitus, Polybius, and the other Sources.

I also have Scullard's "A History of the Roman World 753-146 BC" right next to this volume. The two histories taken together are very useful for a student, for recreational reading, and for brushing up.
