Reviews
This is a magnificent book, covering an extraordinary range of topics and a vast sweep of time. John Freely has lived, written, and taught in Greece, Turkey, and Italy for a lifetime, and this experience has given him the rare ability to tell complex stories in a lucid and engaging manner. This is a book everyone should have.--John Camp, professor of archaeology, ASCS, Athens Stavros Niarchos Foundation Professor of Classics, Randolph-Macon College (07/06/2017)
