About this listen

Titus Livy's only known surviving work is a monumental history of Rome that was originally written in Latin. It is estimated that Livy's The History of Rome was written between 27 and 9 BC and covers the legends of Aeneas, the fall of Troy, the city's founding in 753 BC, and Livy's account ends with the reign of Emperor Augustus.

The History of Rome is a must-have for anyone interested in ancient history and the Roman era. With colorful detail and intriguing insight, Titus brings to life some of the most turbulent times in human history. Most scholars believe Titus Livy was born sometime between 64 and 59 BC. He is estimated to have died between AD 12 to 17, leaving behind one of the most complete works on ancient Rome available to modern historians.

A very important document. The only thing wrong I found are the datings in the fragments where the reader has mistaken AUC for BC, for example, Book xlvi, the reader says 586 BC, however it is AUC, or from the founding of the city 753 BC, so what is here called 586 BC is actually 166BC. Confusing it you did not figure it out.

Takes patient attention.

so sad about this reading, he robotically pumps thru this book at high speed. no feeling, straight off the page he reads without emotion. even slowed to .75 a lot of the picture is lost. so many of these ancient books have great readers but not this . it’s such a shame because the only alternative is the painful foghorn leghorn style alternative American reading.
A classic, interesting book severely reduced by an uninterested reader.

performance so poor
