Reviews
Praise for How to Manage your Slaves: Entertaining and well-researched -- Patrick Kidd * the Times *
Thought-provoking and illuminating -- Orlando Bird * FT *
Toner's commentary ... is excellent ... This book is at its best when Toner analyses Roman attitudes to slavery, and how little they changed even when Christianity began to take hold in the ancient world ... packed with fascinating references to the earliest writings about slavery -- Natalie Haynes * Independent *
Marcus dispenses advice with aplomb ... he is a fascinating creation -- Nick Romeo * TLS *
