The History Of Rome, Books 6 10 by Livy

A sweeping account of Rome’s recovery and consolidation in the early Republic: the narrative follows the city’s rebuilding after disaster, the social and political struggle between patricians and plebeians as they press for rights and legal reforms, and a sequence of wars, campaigns, and shifting alliances with neighboring Italian peoples (Latins, Volsci, Aequi, Samnites) that extend Roman influence across central Italy; woven through are portraits of leaders, episodes of civic virtue and corruption, and recurring themes of military discipline, political compromise, and the foundations of Roman institutions.
