Welcome to another cheeky preview from our new book, Your Cheeky Guide to the Roman Empire.
This chapter is a bit of a contrast to our first one on Spartacus. We turn from a rebel from the lowest ranks of society to one from the elite. We are journeying from the Roman Republic to the mid-Empire. Aaaaand we are travelling from Italy to the provinces.
For our next instalment, we tell you the tale of Queen Zenobia of Palmyra. Cleopatra reborn!
With a Rebel Yell – Zenobia's Winning Strategy

We hope that you enjoy it and would love to hear your thoughts.
If you haven't pre-ordered a copy yet and you like the sound of it, the details for the book can be found on our website.
Music by Bettina Joy de Guzman.
