Hello again John,<br>
I was inspired to pick up my treasured copy of Boak's History of Rome by our discussion since I haven't looked at it in a while. Back to your original question about a single volume general history of Rome I have to reiterate that this is the one you should look at. Intended as a text book it is far from being a dry read. It is interesting and well written. It's one of my few books that I haven't been able to put a highlighter to since I value it so much.<br>
