Can anyone recommend an all Latin history of Rome? I understand that there are many fine Roman histories written by the Romans themselves, and I mean no disrepect towards Livy and Tacitus. However, what I'm hoping to find is a history text written by someone of the modern era for the contemporary student. I'm picturing a text on Google Books from the 1600s, when having your school texts in Latin was still a thing.
My knowledge of Roman history is woefully inadequate, and I'd love to be able to practice my Latin at the same time rather than read about it in English. While I intend to continue reading the original Roman authors, I could use a modern person's perspective on their era to exlain things that would have been taken for granted by or unknown to the ancient authors.
Any of you neo-latinists have a hunch? If such a text does not exist, oh well! I'm also generally interested in any history and school texts written in Latin that I could use to expand my knowledge of other disciplines.
