I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. I had a general knowledge about this period of Rome but never fully realized how the politics of the time influenced things.

Great introduction to Imperial Rome
This is a very easy to read introduction to Imperial Rome. For those not so interested in the finer details, this book is a great history book painted with a broad brush. Definitely recommended for the non-historians.
