We not only follow in the footsteps of the great and small Romans, but we also walk alongside them. At its peak in the second century AD, the Roman Empire spanned three continents, from Hadrian's Wall in the far northwest to bustling port cities on the Red Sea. Its influence, however, extended far beyond its borders, leaving a lasting legacy that continues to shape our world today. In \"The Legacy of Rome,\" acclaimed historian Dr. Simon Elliott embarks on a grand tour of the entire empire, examining each region in turn to demonstrate how the experience of being part of the Roman world continues to have a significant impact on our lives. From the wilds of Britannia, where the legacy of conquest still influences relationships with the Continent, to western Europe, where the language, church, and even law can be traced back to antiquity, to the schisms and wars across central Europe and the Middle East that are directly rooted in the world of Rome, this exploration offers a fascinating glimpse into the reach of Rome beyond its borders and through time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780750996662\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Simon Elliott","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44098486239482,"sku":"9780750996662","price":14.64,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1664572319365_book.jpg?v=1664716826","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-legacy-of-rome-how-the-roman-empire-shaped-the-modern-world-9780750996662","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
