History lovers have a certain lightness in absorbing dates, places and associating historical figures with specific events. And what about people who like to experience the “atmosphere” of the past, but the facts are not particularly important to them?
Historical basics
A certain introduction to the adventure with the world of ancient Rome can be “Rome. A Guide to Civilization” by Robert Jean-Noel. The author discusses the most important historical facts in an accessible way, and at the same time does not attack with too much detail. It shows Rome as seen through the eyes of its inhabitants at that time. The content is organized, divided into numerous sections, which for laymen can only be an incentive to further explore the matter. But before that, it is worth reaching for fiction.

- Vespasian. 1st Tribune of Rome,
- Vespasian. The Executioner of Rome,
- Vespasian The Lost Eagle of Rome,
- Vespasian. The false god of Rome.
The series is very popular. Some readers note that the author is not always faithful to historical facts. It should be noted, however, that Fabbri preceded the writing of the novel with insightful studies of those times and deviated from the truth in content where the history was not fully known. The author skillfully distracts the reader from everyday problems and takes him back to the era of Emperor Vespasian. The world of intrigue, secrets, love and cruelty is absorbed with the effectiveness worthy of Hollywood film productions.
