Description
According to Roman legend, what famous twins were raised by a she-wolf? Who wrote the epic poem The Aeneid? What famous leader brought law and stability, yet was stabbed to death by a group of senators? Life in ancient Rome was certainly not for the faint of heart! In G Is for Gladiator: An Ancient Rome Alphabet, readers are given an A to Z introduction to ancient Rome, including its social, political and civil customs and practices. Husband-and-wife writing team Debbie and Michael Shoulders explore topics such as Roman law, architecture, mythology and, of course, the ultimate "fight club" (gladiatorial combat). From the relaxed surroundings of the public baths to the rigid codes of the military legions, Rome's ancient civilization is unveiled. Colorful, entertaining artwork from Victor Juhasz, the illustrator of Z Is for Zeus: A Greek Mythology Alphabet, brings it all to vivid life.
