"This book was a good alternative to most children's history books, because it does incorporate the customs and mythologies of the time into the biographies, but it is a little too genealogical, chronological and dull for my tastes. Life is not like that (even though it seems that way sometimes)!
Anyway, I much prefer Charles Kovacs' Ancient Rome. It is very lively and infused with the ideals of the time. It doesn't feel the need to list EVERY Roman emporer, but to characterize the major themes of the age. It is wonderful."
