In "It's True! The Romans were the real gangsters," John Wright explores the gritty realities of Roman history, presenting the empire as a hub of corruption, power struggles, and organized crime. The narrative delves into the morally ambiguous world of Roman leaders, soldiers, and ordinary citizens caught up in schemes of betrayal, extortion, and espionage. With a mix of historical facts and engaging anecdotes, Wright highlights the parallels between ancient Rome and modern gang culture. The book invites readers to reconsider their perceptions of history, revealing that the foundations of power often lay in ruthless ambition and cunning, rather than nobility.
