Focussing on how the Romans made Europe work as a homogenous
civilisation and looking at why we are failing to make the EU work
in modern times, this is an authoritative and amusing study from
bestselling author Boris Johnson. In addition to his roles as
politician, editor, author and television presenter, Boris Johnson
is a passionate Roman scholar. A new television series, airing in
March 2005, will see him travelling throughout the Roman Empire in
order to uncover the secrets of the governance of the empire, and
the reasons behind why the Romans held such power and prestige for
so long. Fiercely interested in Europe and the current issues
facing the European Union, Boris Johnson will look at the lessons
we could learn from the Romans and how we could apply them to our
modern politics. This illustrated book, full of witty descriptions,
insight, politics, and more than a few jokes, will accompany the
television series. Boris Johnson is the editor of the Spectator, MP
for Henley, writes a column for the Daily Telegraph. He lives in
London and Oxfordshire with his wife and their children.
