Product Description

Imperial Triumph presents the history of Rome at the height of its imperial power.

Beginning with the reign of Hadrian in Rome & ending with the death of Julian the Apostate on campaign in Persia, it offers an intimate account of the twists & often deadly turns of imperial politics in which successive emperors rose & fell with sometimes bewildering rapidity.

Yet, despite this volatility, the Romans were able to see off successive attacks by Parthians, Germans, Persians & Goths & to extend & entrench their position as masters of Europe & the Mediterranean. Imperial Triumph shows how they managed to do it.
