The legend of the foundation of Rome by Romulus in 753BC accords very well with the earliest defensive walls on the Palatine Hill, made of clay and timber and showing evidence of animal sacrifices. To trace the continual efforts to fortify Rome is to trace the rise and fall of the Roman Empire - through the taking of the city by the Gauls in 390/387, the wars with the Italian states, the threat of Hannibal, the establishment of the Republic, attacks by the northern tribes and eventual division and collapse.

An interesting, well written and informative look into how Rome has been defended throughout history. I thoroughly enjoyed it and would recommend to anyone especially those interested in Roman history from the time of Romulus to Augustus to Belisarius and more.
