Is it better than Dando?

Haven't read either but it's cheap!
There's some seriously good books on offer in the sale bit in Oxbow books...lots of good reference material from inscriptions to catalogues of finds from Greek and Roman sites etc.
Fascinating list - wish I could win the lottery!!
For example, Astin's book on Scipio Aemilianus for under a fiver!!
Roman Inscriptions of Britain Volume III: Inscriptions on Stone (1955-2006)
£56 instead of £70
