Beginning in the crisis year of 69 AD with four successive emperors (Galba, Otho, Vitellius, Vespasian) and ending some seven decades later with the death of Hadrian, Tom Holland presents an unprecedented era of Roman peace: the Golden Age of Rome. At its height, the Roman Empire stretched from Scotland to Arabia, it was the most prosperous and powerful state known to the ancient world. From the gilded capital to the empires beyond its borders, the Roman Empire is shown in all its rapacious splendour and civilising power: the destruction of Jerusalem and Pompeii, the construction of the Colosseum and Hadrian's Wall, Trajan's conquests. Holland vividly and vividly sketches the lives of slaves and emperors (including Titus, Domitian and Trajan) and relentlessly shows how Roman peace emerged from unprecedented military violence. A gripping portrait of Rome: this is the epic story of the Pax Romana for our times.
