Rebels against Rome

“Boudicca, Spartacus, Arminius, and Simon Bar-Kochba join twenty lesser-known heroes in this fascinating compendium of people who, having tasted Roman life, spit it out and turned against it in revolt, threatening the empire itself. They failed, but they failed magnificently. An absorbing journey into the long history of Rome and the threats from within it faced to survive.” —Margaret George, New York Times bestselling author of The Confessions of a Young Nero and The Splendor Before the Dark

“Stephen Dando-Collins never fails to provide a thrilling and educational read.” —Cameron Reilly, co-host of The Life of Caesar podcast series

“Reading Rebels Against Rome was a pleasure, much like reading a good novel … The book is enjoyable and we can highly recommend it for those interested in the events of the late Roman Empire, a fascinating subject of great importance to the Western World that reverberates through time to this day. Enjoy.” —Major Dan, History & Headlines
