Author Description

Excerpt from History of Rome, Vol. 1: For the Use of Schools IN the volume now offered to the public, it is the intention of the author to connect the most important events of Roman history, from the foundation of Rome to the death of Constantine. That these events may be more easily fixed upon the memory, it is thought advisable to separate the narrative into three parts. Part I. Is confined to that period known as the monarchy, which, although very properly regarded as wholly fabulous, is the only foundation that can be obtained for a history upon whose pages almost all the nations of the earth appear.
