Book Description
Terry Deary and Martin Brown’s brilliant books about the nastiest periods in history have now – with the help of some astounding actors – been transformed into a series of audio extravaganzas. Featuring new, extra material not found anywhere in the books, these sound spectaculars are just as thrilling and spilling, funny and fast as their printed counterparts. Horrible Histories are guaranteed to bring you history with the nasty bits left in!

The Rotten Romans features beastly battles, deadly doctoring and marvellous myths – and you can even find out how to tell the future using a dead chicken! It’s packed with quizzes, sketches, music and jokes, as well as mini-dramas and real life re-enactments – telling you the kind of foul facts which just aren’t available from a classroom education!

2003 is the 10th Anniversary of the publication of Horrible Histories. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

It is designed to make learning about the "Rotten" Romans fun, and it achieves this with flying colours. Meet the infamous rulers and emperors of the time, come face to face with those who "stabbed Casear in the back", and experience a Roman dining party! Overall, a perfect book to read for children and teenagers alike, combining Terry Deary's perfect humour with facts which will stick with the reader for the rest of their lives!  Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you?
