Glorious Greece And Imperial Rome is a historical book written by Susie Montgomery Best and published in 1918. The book provides an in-depth look at the history, culture, and achievements of two of the most influential civilizations in world history: ancient Greece and Rome. The author begins by discussing the geography and early history of Greece, including the rise of the Minoan and Mycenaean civilizations. She then delves into the political and cultural developments of ancient Greece, including the emergence of city-states, the rise of democracy, and the achievements of Greek philosophers, artists, and writers. The second part of the book focuses on ancient Rome, beginning with its legendary founding by Romulus and Remus. Best discusses the development of the Roman Republic and its eventual transformation into an empire under the rule of Julius Caesar and his successors. She also explores the achievements of Roman engineers, architects, and writers, as well as the role of religion and the military in Roman society. Throughout the book, Best provides detailed descriptions of important historical events, as well as insights into the daily lives of ordinary people in ancient Greece and Rome. She also includes numerous illustrations and maps to help readers better understand the cultures and societies she describes. Overall, Glorious Greece And Imperial Rome is a comprehensive and engaging introduction to two of the most fascinating civilizations in human history.
