Start with the book ” Capitol volicca. Rome before the Caesars “by Gasparov — then you can try his translation of Suetonius '”Life of the Twelve Caesars”.
The answer depends on what you need the history of Rome for. It depends on whether you recommend monographs of historians or popular books. But if the interest is serious, then, after a few ” review “books of popular persuasion, you can take up our Theodor Mommsen, his” History of Rome”, if it does not crush you with its monumentality, one of the best, and still has not lost its significance. Then you can't get past Edward Gibbon and his History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire. The works of Roman historians themselves, such as Tacitus, Plutarch, and Titus Livy, are also very well read. It will also be useful to read Caesar's War with the Gauls.
