A Constitutional and Political History of Rome.ByT. M. Taylor, M.A., Fellow of Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge, Senior Chancellor’s Medallist for Classics, Porson University Scholar, etc. etc. Crown 8vo, 7s. 6d.
An account of the origin and growth of the Roman institutions, and a discussion of the various political movements in Rome from the earliest times to the death of Augustus.
“We fully recognise the value of this carefully written work, and admire especially the fairness and sobriety of the author’s judgment, and the human interest with which he has inspired a subject which in some hands becomes a mere series of cold abstractions. It is a work that will be stimulating to the student of Roman history.”—Athenæum.
A Short History of Rome.ByJ. Wells, M.A., Fellow and Tutor of Wadham College, Oxford. With 3 Maps. Second Edition. Crown 8vo, 3s. 6d.
“An original work, written on an original plan and with uncommon freshness and vigour.”—Speaker.
“The schoolmasters who have felt the want of a fifth-form handbook of Roman history may congratulate themselves on persuading Mr. Wells to respond to it. His book is excellently planned and executed. Broken up into short paragraphs, with headings to arrest the attention, his manual does equal justice to the personal and the constitutional aspects of the story. Special credit is due to an author who, in the compilation of an elementary work of this kind, faces the difficulties of his subject with conscientious skill, neither ignoring them nor eluding them with a loose phrase, but striving to explain them in the simplest and briefest statements.”—Journal of Education.
