Ursus Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 (edited) I think I'll skip this round. Although the first book on Late Antiquity seems mildly interesting, and rather cheap. Edited March 12, 2011 by Ursus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DecimusCaesar Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 I recently got Maty's book on the Gladiators. I pre-ordered it and it arrived this week, but I haven't got round to reading it yet. I'm curious about the book on Roman houeshold cavalry, and like Ursus i'd like to check out the introduction to late antiquity book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Metella Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 Thanks for the links ! There are only 3 (yes THREE) books on Roman before the middle-ages at my library. Humph. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ursus Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 (edited) Thanks for the links ! There are only 3 (yes THREE) books on Roman before the middle-ages at my library. Humph. There were only 2 books on Ancient Rome in my local library, all written before 1980. So I had to donate some of my own collection to get them up to date.

Metella Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 Ah - that was very generous of you. I'm afraid my personal library consists of only 9 books, so I cannot be so generous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docoflove1974 Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 The Romanization of Central Spain one sounds intriguing to me...Hispania holds a particular note of interest to me, and I don't know much about pre-Roman elements. Might have to get that one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
