General Roman Empire (and Ancient Greece) book: Rebekah Send a noteboard - 14/12/2011 06:55:25 PM
Robin Lane Fox's The Classical World: From Homer to Hadrian.

Really interesting, easy to read, quite well respected, as far as I'm aware.


I don't have any suggestions re the other two areas so I'll be interested to see what others come up with.
