"mostly painful to read - especially the education chapter - couldn't tell if the author was trying to parody Roman rhetoric or imitate it sincerely. The image you get of the Romans from this book is that they were cruel and crass. Contrast with Daily Life in Ancient Greece."
"Rather interesting stuff. But holy hell, the author either hated the Romans, himself or the rest of the world. I don't know; I'm not a psychologist. This could have been a really great book, but instead I kept thinking, "Why would he spend so much time with something he obviously hates?" Rather distracting, and it ruins the book."
