Salve all! It's been some time since I've posted or perused the forums here at RAT. Yet, I just got through talking to a dear friend who's gotten to delving into Roman history. He's wondering if anyone might recommend any historical texts covering from 180AD through 285AD?
Any and all recommendations would be greatly appreciated!
