كتاب The Story of Civilization, Volume 3: Caesar and Christ PDF

Volume 3 of the monumental Story of Civilization, CAESAR & CHRIST depicts the rise of Rome from a crossroads town to empire. The world's first republic, Rome spread its civilization over the Mediterranean & western European world. Its long, slow crumbling & final collapse plunged Europe into darkness & chaos. The Pax Romana broke some heads. Jews felt the scourge in Judea, where Jesus of Nazareth met a dissident's death. His agony foreshadowed the Empire's over the next few centuries. "Lively, stimulating & accurate."--Saturday Review of Literature
