An acclaimed scholar tells the full, breathtaking history of Rome "with verve and aplomb"(Roderick Beaton, author of The Greeks), from its emergence in the Iron Age to the capture of Constantinople in the thirteenth century

When we think of "ancient Romans" today, many picture the toga-clad figures of Cicero and Caesar, presiding over a republic, and then an empire, before seeing their world collapse at the hands of barbarians in the fifth century AD.
The Romans does away with this narrow vision by offering the first comprehensive account of ancient Rome over the course of two millennia. Prize-winning historian Edward J. Watts recounts the full sweep of Rome's epic past: the Punic Wars, the fall of the republic, the coming of Christianity, Alaric's sack of Rome, the rise of Islam, the Battle of Manzikert, and the onslaught of the Crusaders who would bring about the empire's end. Watts shows that the source of Rome's enduring strength was the diverse range of people who all called themselves Romans. This is the Rome of Augustus, Marcus Aurelius, and Constantine, but also Charlemagne, Justinian, and Manuel Comnenus-and countless other men and women who together made it the most resilient state the world has ever seen.
An expansive, eye-opening portrait, The Romans is the definitive history of Rome and its citizens.
