| book description |
Professor Alice Roberts travels two thousand miles by train in search of a greater understanding of the Roman Empire for Channel 4's popular TV series The Roman Empire by Train with Alice Roberts. This book delivers more depth and context than the TV series possibly can, using four broad narrative strands. Alice explores what everyday life was like for ordinary citizens of the Roman Empire and reveals the extraordinary developments in technology, law, lifestyle, politics, health and education that remain to this day and how these fed into the birth, expansion and collapse of the empire. She also shares her experiences from the journey itself, including her drawings and personal anecdotes. Roman Empire by Train with Alice Roberts reveals the extraordinary backstory of one of the world’s greatest expansionist empires and enables readers to follow Alice's journey through Italy, France and Spain, or simply enjoy the ride from the comfort of home.
