Between the Sack of Rome by the Gauls in 390 BC and the middle of second century BC, a part-time of Roman peasants, under the leadership of the ruling oligarchy, conquered first Italy and then the whole Mediterranean. The loyalty of these marauding adventures, and of the Roman population as a whole, to their leaders was assured by a share in the rewards of victory, rewards that became steadily less accessible as the empire expanded ¿ prompting a decline in loyalty or cataclysmic proportions.
"During the centuries of its history the republic burst its city-state shell¿ Wars, rural impoverishment, the concentration of wealth in the hands of a few families, civil discord, the increase in number of slaves and robbery of overseas provinces caused irreversible changes¿ This is the material of Mr. Crawford's study.
He handles its complexities with acuteness and balance. He is sophisticated about political motives and economic causes¿ his highly readable book is a fine contribution to the understanding of this important period."
TIMES HIGHER EDUCATION SUPPLEMENT
"Well informed, lively¿ For its length¿ the work conveys a remarkable quantity of information¿ students will benefit greatly from Crawford's obvious enthusiasm for historical research and for finding explanations of complex phenomena."
