Summary

The essential self-help guide to living in Ancient Rome, covering all areas of everyday life in this ancient civilization, from religious beliefs and travel through to what to wear.

Imagine you were transported back in time to Ancient Rome and you had to start a new life there. How would you fit in? Where would you live? What would you eat? Where would you go to have your hair done? Who would you go to if you got ill, or if you were mugged in the street?

All these questions, and many more, will be answered in this new how-to guide for time travelers. Part self-help guide, part survival guide, this lively and engaging book will help the listener deal with the many problems and new experiences that they will face, and also help them to thrive in this strange new environment.

An excellent general introduction to Ancient Rome

This is a very enjoyable transition from her historical novels into real history and it proves equally engaging and a very fun read.

The contents are wide ranging and for the general reader will provide a comprehensive flavour of how Rome was made up, how it lived and who lived in it and how they all fitted together from the republic to the empire
