Publisher's summary

What do you know about the emperors of Rome?

Rome had good and bad emperors, selfish and selfless ones. Some were wise, others were foolish. And each left their legacy and their imprint on historical concepts of the Roman empire itself. In this book, we will explore the details of a number of these emperors, especially some of the best-known ones that have been hand-picked by the editors of this book. This publication will shed more light on the following emperors:

  • Nero
  • Claudius
  • Marcus Aurelius
  • Caligula
  • Hadrian
  • Trajan
  • Caracalla
  • Vespanian
  • Commodus
  • Julius Caesar
  • Constantine the Great

We'll also delve deeper into the spreading of Christianity, the persecution of the Christians, wars with the Germanic people, the Liturgy, and many other topics you may be interested in as well. This book is a gem among trivial rocks. Get it now.

Nice

It talks about some of the emperors that aren't as well-known as Julius Ceasar or Augustus. So I found it fascinating, in a way, to hear more about those. Good narrator.

Another good one

I loved this book, because it shows you what those emperors back then did with all that power. Some were real jerks and others stood up for what was right. It must have not been that easy for some of them, but then, there were some that were complete psychos, like Caligula and Nero. Awful what they did to people. Bunch of drama.

That's interesting

These kinds of books are great. They give us greater insights into historical figures. It really shows something and you can learn a lot from emperors.

Poorly written, mediocre all around

Reader don’t read super well…mispronounces words and stutters occasionally. The book is written like an amateur blog post—confusing at times and very casual. Waste of an audible credit.
