Ares Publishers, Chicago
#1
Dear friends, especially those from the U.S.,<br>
does anybody know something about the fate of Ares Publishers, Inc. in Chicago? They still have a website at<br>
<br>
www.arespublishers.com<br>
<br>
but it's impossible to deliver an email order to them via the address given there.<br>
<br>
Their books include Miller/DeVoto (eds.), Polybius and Pseudo-Hyginus. Fortification of the Roman Camp (first english translation of Ps.-Hyginus!), the third edition of Starr, The Roman Imperial Navy, a comparatively affordable reprint of Dessau, Inscriptiones Latinae Selectae, and many more interesting stuff.<br>
<br>
I know that it's possible to obtain most of their books elsewhere, but if I could order directly from them, the prices would be much lower, even including p&p from the U.S. to Germany. Any ideas?<br>
<br>
Greetings,<br>
<br>

I'll give them a call tomorrow for you, and see what's up. Their website was last updated apparently in 1998. <p>Aulus, Legio XX.

Their phone number works, but they are in Colorado, not chicago. I left a voice mail to email me any updated instructions on ordering, or if they had had any problems lately. I'll let you know what they say. <p>Aulus, Legio XX.

Hi Martin; nope not a word or email or anything. Now that you remind me, I'll try a phone call tomorrow afternoon, but I wonder if they are really in business anymore. <p>Richard Campbell, Legio XX.

Thanks for your efforts, Rich! It would be a pity if they were out of business, because their books are (used to be) good and cheap...<br>

Still in business, here is a link to the order page.

If anyone has further trouble, email me directly. A response may take a few days, but you will get one. There is also an updated price list here:

For information and prices on books NOT listed, let me know and I will check on those and get back to you.
