I dipped into this rather than reading cover to cover as we were watching Rome and Spartacus at the time and I wanted to validate things. Or argue with them!

I read this for one of my Classics classes while at university, and it was just okay. Fine for a basic intro, I suppose, but no real depth was given. Other overviews I've read were better, and I didn't find myself referring to this text very often, but other books from past classes instead.
