This early work by Eva March Tappan was originally published in 1910 and
we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. 'The
Story of the Roman People: An Elementary History of Rome' is an
educational work that discusses the history of Rome as a Kingdom, a
republic, and an empire. Eva March Tappan was born on 26th December
1854, in Blackstone, Massachusetts, United States. Tappan began her
literary career writing about famous characters from history in works
such as 'In the Days of William the Conqueror' (1901), and 'In the Days
of Queen Elizabeth' (1902). She then developed an interest in children's
books, writing her own and publishing collections of classic tales.
