Famous Men Of Rome: History for the Thoughtful Child
by John H. Haaren Editor, John H. Haaren Author, A. B. Poland Author
(From Amazon): Teach your children the history of Rome, beginning with the stories of Romulus and Remus, the twin brothers credited with the founding of the city. The thirty short biographies cover the key figures of the founding of Rome, the early days of the Republic, the Empire, and the decline. The history of Rome is taught chronologically as students read short biographical sketches. As in Famous Men of Greece, your fourth or fifth graders should be able to enjoy it independently, while older students can also read it and not feel they have been given something that is "babyish."
