Roman Empire by Train with Alice Roberts (inbunden, eng)

Explore the Ancient Roman Empire as you’ve never seen it before with the acclaimed anthropologist and Sunday Times bestselling author of Domination, Alice Roberts. AS SEEN ON CHANNEL 4Join Professor Alice Roberts as she travels over a thousand miles through Italy, France and Spain in search of a greater understanding of the Roman Empire and its legacy.

From Naples to Pompeii, Rome to Turin, Nîmes to Narbonne and Tarragona to Cartagena, Roberts visits sites both on and off the beaten track to reveal new perspectives on one of history’s greatest civilisations. Along the way, she meets leading historians and archaeologists who bring the Roman world to life.

Alice explores what life was like for ordinary citizens of the Roman Empire, as well as examining the key developments in technology, law, politics, health and education that remain to this day and how these fed into the birth, expansion and collapse of the empire. Featuring Alice’s own experiences from the journey itself, including her drawings and personal anecdotes, this book delivers more depth and context than the TV series, with up-to-date discoveries and facts about one of history’s greatest empires.

Whether you want to follow Alice’s journey yourself or enjoy the ride from the comfort of your home, Roman Empire by Train with Alice Roberts is both an immersive travelogue and an accessible guide to the rise and fall of the Roman Empire.
