Horrible Histories: Ruthless Romans by Terry Deary

Ruthless Romans takes readers inside an empire built on battles, ambition and some truly outrageous behaviour. Terry Deary peels back the armour and marble to show what Rome was really like beneath the surface. Inside these pages you will meet emperors who treated murder as a spectator sport, discover which ruler thought camel heels were a delicacy and uncover the legendary twins whose story lies at the heart of Rome itself.

This edition brings the classic Horrible Histories energy with a fresh new look and extra material that adds even more strange and unforgettable details. The illustrations bring the action to life and the writing proves once again that history is at its best when it is bold, messy and a little bit unbelievable.

Perfect for curious minds and fans of the long running series, Ruthless Romans continues the Horrible Histories tradition that has made readers laugh and learn for generations across books, television, theatre and beyond.

Add it to your growing collection and march straight into one of the most fascinating periods of the ancient world.
