''History of the Roman Empire: From the Accession of Augustus to the End of the Empire of the West'' is a comprehensive historical account of the Roman Empire written by Thomas Keightley in 1841. The book covers the period from 27 BC, when Augustus became the first Roman emperor, to the fall of the Western Roman Empire in 476 AD. Keightley’s work is divided into several sections, each covering a different period in Roman history. He begins by describing the reign of Augustus and the establishment of the Roman Empire, and then moves on to discuss the various emperors who followed, including Tiberius, Caligula, Nero, and Trajan. The book also covers important events and developments during the Roman Empire, such as the expansion of the empire, the rise of Christianity, and the decline and fall of the Western Roman Empire. Keightley provides detailed descriptions of battles, political intrigues, and cultural and social changes that occurred during this time period. Throughout the book, Keightley draws on a wide range of primary and secondary sources to support his arguments and provide historical context. He also includes maps and illustrations to help readers better understand the geography and culture of the Roman Empire. Overall, ''History of the Roman Empire'' is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Roman history or the history of ancient civilizations. Keightley’s writing is engaging and informative, making this book an accessible and enjoyable read for both scholars and general readers alike.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
