Product Description

Product Description

'...a unique achievement in its genre: a masterly synthesis of a huge mass of material. It deals with the political, military, social and cultural aspects of Roman civilisation, extending over a millennium.' - KLEIO '...we must indeed be grateful for what we have been given, which is immense. It is not often that a new edition of an old book can be hailed as a major event but this is the exception.' - Times Literary Supplement 'Almost nothing has escaped Scullard's attention, including some extremely recent items...it will be an ideal work of reference for students.' - Times Higher Education Supplement

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect guide to Ancient Rome, 18 Feb 2002
By A Customer
A well written and all-encompasing volume that is my first resource when looking for anything about Roman History. Again, as with the last review, not for the beginner, but a thorough work for anyone seriously interested in the Roman world. The bibliography is also the best of any Roman history book that I have read.

5.0 out of 5 stars A GREAT book covering the essentials of Roman History, 19 Jul 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: A History of Rome: Down to the Reign of Constantine (Paperback)
This book covers the major events of Ancient Rome beginning with the earliest times involving pre-Roman Italy and ending where Ancient History ends, the reign of Constantine. Cary and Scullard discusses not only the political and military events, but provide excellent discussions on Roman Society - art, religion, social life, literature, etc. The book is most definitely a valuable resource on Roman History and I highly recommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars The ULTIMATE SOURCE on Roman History, 22 Feb 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: A History of Rome: Down to the Reign of Constantine (Paperback)
For many years, this work has been recognized as the most complete, most concise work available on the history of the Roman state. Both military/political, and social aspects are discussed. For thorough and factual information, a serious scholar should look no further. This work is particulary appropriate if intended as a study tool for Junior Classical League competitions.
