For almost twenty-one years, from AD 117 to 138, Publius Aelius Hadrianus ruled one of the mightiest empires the world has ever seen - a territory that comprised much of Europe, northern Africa and the Middle East. During this time he realigned borders, crushed rebellions, travelled extensively and created some of the most magnificent buildings in the ancient world.
The Emperor Hadrian presents a concise portrait of this remarkable individual - his family, his deeds, his loves and his legacy. It celebrates his immense achievements, and looks, too, at the complex character that lay behind the glorious public image.
