Livy's only extant work is part of his history of Rome from the foundation of the city to 9 BCE. Of its 142 books, we have just 35, and short summaries of all the rest except two. The whole work was, long after his death, divided into Decades or series of ten. Books 1Â-10 we have entire; books 11Â-20 are lost; books 21Â-45 are entire, except parts of 41 and 43Â-45. Of the rest only fragments and the summaries remain. In splendid style Livy, a man of wide sympathies and proud of Rome's past, presented an uncritical but clear and living narrative of the rise of Rome to greatness. The Loeb Classical Library edition of Livy is in fourteen volumes. The last volume includes a comprehensive index.RomeHistory937Livy Annotation1432193NjHacINjHaclBOOK996199214603316History of Rome3575914UNISA
