A swell introduction to Roman Civ. for young adults or for anyone who has never tasted the stuff before. Hamilton will pique your curiosity while getting you up to speed so you can tackle narrower and more scholarly treatments. The info is sound, the writer is informed, her prose is superb, and her language is easily ingested by anyone who can read at the high-school level.

Highly recommended. (
