Good review of Adrian Goldsworthy's...Hi Chris:<br /><br />Good review of Adrian Goldsworthy's set of Roman Empire books. One of the areas of history I wish I had more time to investigate in some detail. Being alive during this period of history would have been great ... that is if you were Roman. Otherwise, not such a good time. That's the upside down-ness of this planet. It seems the heroes of history are for the most part its oppressors. Yet the oppressors tend to advance human technology and ability. It's Caesar, Genghis Kong, Alexander the Great, et al, who are the big players who persist in history. However, the Ghandi's and the Mandela's of history become lost to the sands of time.<br /><br />Good review. Enjoyed reading it.Richard Smallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15691317970762153722noreply@blogger.com
