Rome History 1932 History of the Roman Republic & Empire, Illustrated Vintage Ha

Cyril E. Robinson’s A History of the Roman Republic (1932) offers a clear narrative of Rome’s rise and fall between 509 and 27 BC. Beginning with the overthrow of the monarchy, he explains the creation of republican institutions and the struggles between patricians and plebeians. Robinson traces Rome’s expansion across Italy and the Mediterranean through wars with Carthage, Greece, and the East.
 He highlights how conquest brought wealth, slaves, and inequality, undermining the small farmer and destabilizing society. Reformers like the Gracchi failed, while ambitious generals like Marius, Sulla, and Caesar exploited turmoil, leading to civil war and the Republic’s collapse.
