The History of Rome, Books 1-5 (häftad, eng)

In addition to Valerie Warrior''s crisp, fluent translation of the first five books of Livy''s Ab Urbe Condita, this edition features a general introduction to Livy and his work, extensive foot-of-the-page notes offering essential contextual information, and a chronology of events.

Three appendices--on the genealogies of the most prominent political figures in the early Republic, Livy''s relationship with Augustus, and Livy''s treatment of religion--offer additional insight into the author and the early history of Rome.
