Review
An ideal and readable resource for students of Roman history and the classics -- School Library Journal, May 1995
Explanations are clear and concise and present a wealth of information. Many illustrations. High school students should especially find this a useful reference. Recommended for all public libraries -- Reference Book Review, 1995
This beautifully produced book is a marvellous encyclopedia of Roman life. It is arranged in thematic chapters, so it can be read straight through, but is also ideal as a reference book for students looking up specific facts, or for just browsing. Clearly written and illustrated with sketches, photos and maps: everything you could want to know about people, places and gods, military and social life, literature and travel, covering subjects from the alphabet to Zeest amphorae. An unusual and intriguing reference book -- The Good Book Guide January 1995
This is an excellent handbook... The great merit of this work, however, is its accessibility: the authors translate all the necessary Latin and assume little background on their readers' part. Recommended for general readers, undergraduates, and even for their teachers -- Choice -- American Library Association -- October 1994
