This volume begins when simple Roman peasants, under the rule of the much more advanced Etruscans, lived in a Rome that was a group of primitive farms and villages. It shows how, as they gradually grew stronger and wider in influence, they absorbed the arts and sciences of the various invaders and how, by the time they were military masters of all Italy, they had developed into a race that was not only industrious, but ingenious, sophisticated and highly organized.
