Omschrijving

On The Edge Of The Empire is a historical fiction novel written by Edgar Jepson and first published in 1899. The story is set in the Roman Empire during the reign of Emperor Nero and follows the adventures of a young Roman soldier named Marcus. Marcus is stationed in the frontier town of Vindolanda, which is located on the northern edge of the Roman Empire in what is now modern-day England. He is tasked with keeping the peace and defending the town against the hostile tribes that live beyond the border. As Marcus goes about his duties, he becomes embroiled in a complex web of political intrigue and personal drama. He falls in love with a local woman named Flavia, but their relationship is threatened by the machinations of a corrupt Roman official named Lucius. Meanwhile, Marcus must also contend with the scheming of his own commander, who is more interested in personal gain than in protecting the people of Vindolanda. The novel is filled with action, adventure, and romance, and provides a vivid picture of life in the Roman Empire during a turbulent and dangerous time. It also explores themes of loyalty, honor, and the struggle between individual desires and the needs of society. Overall, On The Edge Of The Empire is a thrilling and engaging read for anyone interested in historical fiction or Roman history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
