☆The myth of Rome

I'm reading "THE STORY OF ROME" now. It has 6 chapters and I've read Chapter 1. It is "The myth of Rome".

This was a story of Romulus and Remus who are royal twin brothers.

I was interested that they were brought up by a wolf when they were babies.
Their grandfather was King Numitor, but his brother, Amulius stole the crown from Numitor and ordered a slave to kill the twins. However, the slave didn't obey it and he floated them to the river gently. Shortly after the twins lived with wolves, a shepherd couple found them and brought them up as their own sons.

I was surprised that Romulus killed Remus.
One day the twins met their real grandfather again. He was very pleased and they gave the crown back to Numitor from Amulius. After that, the twins had a quarrel about where their territory start. Finally, Romulus ruled and named his own city "Rome".

I chose this book because I'm interested in Rome! I will write a summary of Chapter 2 tomorrow or I may write some summaries about some chapters which I like.
