guy 156 Report post Posted February 23, 2008 http://www.unrv.com/book-review/the-roman-empire.php Thank you for the excellent review. I, too, enjoyed the book. Another great book dealing with the "Third Century Crisis" (my favorite period in Roman History) is Michael Grant's The Climax of Rome. Thanks, again. guy also known as gaius Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ursus 6 Report post Posted February 23, 2008 Glad you liked it. You know, when I first read it, I had had a bad week at work, couldn't get into the book, and placed it on my shelf where it lay for months. Then I picked it up again in a better mood and devoured it. Just goes to show what one's mood does for enjoying a book. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That is why I greatly enjoy everyone's reviews. The Michael Grant book, The Climax of Rome: The Final Achievements of the Ancient World AD 161-337 is hard to find. Nevertheless, it can be purchased at HamiltonBook .com for $5.95. guy also know as gauis Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
