Reviews
A delightful tour through ancient Greece with plenty for the sports-minded, historian, Greek scholar, and linguist., A grand 'traverse of classical civilization.'  Just one of the delightful aspects of this book is the author's penchant to throw in Greek and/or Latin sources for many of our words. He also provides countless telling details about each period in a way that makes ancient history feel fresh and invigorating. Anyone with the slightest curiosity about ancient classics will love this book. Shelve next to the work of Mary Beard., Well informed and concise. As for the origin of the games, in his view, that is simple: it is war., Spivey's descriptions of historical facts and personages read smoothly. A serviceable overall look at Graeco-Roman history and its ideals., A fascinating book, with much to teach. He brings alive the place, the time, and the brutal men who came together to fiercely compete for honor and glory., A grand 'traverse of classical civilization.' Just one of the delightful aspects of this book is the author's penchant to throw in Greek and/or Latin sources for many of our words. He also provides countless telling details about each period in a way that makes ancient history feel fresh and invigorating.
