Publisher's Note
The Imperial fire department uses blankets soaked in vinegar. When one man's slave breaks a law, all of his slaves -- including women and children -- are punished. Here are the stories of emperors, slaves, artisans, legionaires, gladiators and poets -- the Romans who built one of the greatest empires of all time.

Industry reviews
Gr 8 Up This oversized volume is filled with attractive art and artifacts. Virtually every page contains full-color photographs of mosaics, statues, murals, and everyday objects. Four chapters outline the Roman power structure and major players, the classes of citizens, discord in Caesar's armies, and the early Olympic games. Personal accounts offer glimpses into Roman life: beauty rituals, marriage customs, entertainment, superstitions, trades, and burial rites, to name a few. While the art and personal vignettes should create interest, the text may not. The small font and the lack of subtopics create a heavy look. The writing style is wordy, and the paragraphs and sentences are long. A mixed bag of excellent illustration and mediocre text. Leigh Ann Jones, Carroll Middle School, Southlake, TX

Please read this about our domestic shipping...

Books are shipped via USPS Media Mail, unless otherwise indicated. Please allow up to two weeks for delivery, depending on your location. All items originate from Round Rock, Texas.

EVERY item we ship is INSURED, either privately, or by the USPS or other carrier. This is INCLUDED in your shipping and handling fee. Please contact us first for any claims.

All Media Mail shipments must be originated from the post office. We ship twice weekly, in an effort to combine providing good service with reduced energy costs to help keep our prices low and our planet green.

We charge a flat $3.98 for media mail shipping of a single book (multiple book lots vary), less than Half.com or most other online booksellers. Additional books will be charged only $1.98 each S&H. These prices have remained consistent despite recent postal rate hikes.

 

Please read this about Feedback...

Ebay has recently established a five star detailed seller rating system. When you give 4 stars, it may seem like a great score, for instance a 4 in Shipping Time means "Quickly;" eBay, however, considers this a sub-par mark. Their standards require sellers to maintain 4.8 & above or be penalized with higher fees, less visibility & more.

We strive for 5-star service by stating upfront our policies, our shipping rate & our shipping frequency.

If you were pleased with this transaction, please respond with all 5 stars! If you are not pleased, let us know via e-mail, and we'll work to make it that way.

Let's work together to create a great community, full of wonderful bargains & fun for all of us.

WE SHIP WORLDWIDE!

All international shipments must be originated at the US Post Office, and require additional handling and paperwork. A nominal US$3.00 handling fee is added to the actual cost of shipping, to help defray this expense, and allow us to continue to offer this service.

No reserve (NR)

Please visit our Ebay store and take advantage of our combined shipping offer! Additional books cost only $1.98 shipping & handling!
