Reviews
"In a series of questions and lively answers, this book covers a wide range of different themes from the Ancient World. Fascinating and fun, it will delight any enthusiast for the Classical World and History buff." - Dr. Adrian Goldsworthy, author of Caesar, Augustus, and How Rome Fell, "Separating fact from fable and covering both details of daily life and the grand events of history, Ryan offers highly entertaining yet historically accurate insights into the fascinating civilizations of the ancient Greek and Romans. Structured around 40 stimulating questions covering the who, what, where, and how of ancient history, this book serves up a feast of delightful anecdotes and easy-to-digest yet authoritative mini-essays that reveal the secrets of a lost world in which the truth is often more astonishing and captivating than any fiction." -Prof. Gregory S. Aldrete, author of Daily Life in the Roman City
