Tom Holland: Rome in a Time of Peace
Tom Holland is the co-host of the phenomenally popular The Rest is History podcast. An accomplished writer and historian, he returns to the time when Christianity began with Pax — the last volume in a trilogy narrating the story of the Roman Empire. Holland focuses on the Pax Romana – a 200-year period of relative peace and prosperity, and shares some pearls from this deep dive into history, with Stuart Kelly.
