Sailing From Byzantium By Colin Wells

Another review has been completed for our Roman Books section, thanks to community member Tobias.

One cannot avoid the fact that Rome's shadow has been cast over the ages, spreading knowledge, wisdom, technology etc over centuries and through many peoples of the world, to have a resounding influence on today's world. How has this influence survived so long, when it is a commonly held thought that Rome ended in the 5th century A.D., and that this "fall" was the end to any Roman influence in the world? The answer is that Rome did not fall

Interesting. I may check this one out. I read something previously by Wells and enjoyed his style.

I may too eventually. Good review Tobias, cheers!
