Reviews

[Neil · Rating 3 out of 5]

An introductory overview of broad sweeps of ancient history. This is a good thing, and not.
I wanted more meat, more juice, more... information!
But the writing is interesting and pleasant. If only there had been more of it!

Short history of ancient Greece on 96 pages, there is nothing more to say.
