Quote:Hi,Arthes,I have that problem with a library book on Ancient Greece, 'The Ancient Greeks-in their own words' by Matthew Dillon and it is quite a fascinating book, very humourous in places .... just too relaxing I suppose...lol
I have Paul Cartledge's book "The Spartans".
I wish I could say I've read it.Goodness knows,I've tried.
When I ordered it I anxiously awaited it's arrival. But--
I feel like a kid in school who's forced to read Shakespeare
or Latin. If I could stay awake long enough to finish a chapter.......
Ya' know?
cheers,
I just picked it up and looked at it....and feel tired....that is ridiculous...
hock: So you recommend Paul Cartledge in place of a nightcap...... :lol: :lol:
regards
Arthes

The enemy is less likely to get wind of an advance of cavalry, if the orders for march were passed from mouth to mouth rather than announced by voice of herald, or public notice. Xenophon
