This volume ventures into the epic saga of the Roman Empire, capturing its majestic rise and inevitable decline from 180 to 395 AD. Edward Gibbon's insightful narrative, enriched by illustrations from Gian Battista Piranesi, offers readers a vivid exploration of a civilization that shaped much of Western history.

Boorstin's contributions, this work not only chronicles events but also invites readers to ponder the lasting impact of Rome's legacy on the world today.
