I will make a point of getting hold of a copy of this at some point. I did try to respond to this thread a while back but it didn't take. It must have been during the 'change-over' period and it got lost. I'll be interested in your own review.

I have not read the book yet, though it is in my wish list, Paul Bardunias has written a very favorable review at Amazon and after communicating with the author through emails I can say that she is a very knowledgable (and likable) person. Ms Schrader is currently doing research on the city-sate of Thespiae for inclusion in the series. :grin:
