A Grand Tour of the Roman Empire by Marcus Sidonius Falx - Dr. Jerry Toner - Bog - Profile Books Ltd - Plusbog.dk

A Grand Tour of the Roman Empire by Marcus Sidonius Falx - Dr. Jerry Toner - Bog - Profile Books Ltd - Plusbog.dk

''Toner again spins a tale that is enjoyable and informative.'' The TimesTour the Roman Empire at its height with Marcus Sidonius Falx and his amanuensis, Dr Jerry Toner. Travelling east, Falx explores the great cultural centre of Athens before trekking into rural Asia (or Turkey as we know it), past the already ancient Luxor monuments in Roman Egypt, and by the Great Library of Alexandria. Travelling west across the breadbasket of the Empire, he journeys through Gaul (France) before crossing to Britannia, where he suffers the worst that provincial life has to offer. Falx provides practical advice on surviving all things travel: from pirates and shipwrecks to bedbugs and lousy food. Even the most sedentary reader will feel they have experienced life in the Empire first-hand.

17 Years Later - J.p. Pomare - Bog - Hachette Australia - Plusbog.dk

''There''s no better storyteller in the thriller game than Pomare'' HERALD SUN ''Shocking, twisty and impossible to put down'' CHRISTIAN WHITE ''Pomare''s gift for complex plots and drum-tight tension shines'' BENJAMIN STEVENSON ''A raging river of twists and turns'' WEEKEND AUSTRALIAN ''Flawlessly plotted . . . breathless suspense'' ANNA DOWNES The violent slaughter of the Primrose family while they slept shocked the nation. The family''s young live-in chef, Bill Kareama, was swiftly charged with murder and brought to justice. But the brutal crime scarred the idyllic town of Cambridge forever.

The Ancient World: Ideas in Profile - Jerry Toner - Bog - Profile Books Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Ancient World: Ideas in Profile - Jerry Toner - Bog - Profile Books Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Ideas in Profile: Small Introductions to Big TopicsThis introduction to the ancient world, part of the Ideas in Profile series, covers all its different cultures, from the million people crammed into Rome to the Jews and Syrians who refused to be Romanised. Jerry Toner shows what can be learnt from new approaches to ancient history, from analysing the bones of the dead in Pompeii or assessing the impact of environmental change, and considers how we can discover what it was like to live back then. He looks at every period, not just classical Athens and Republican Rome, but the Hellenistic kingdoms that followed Alexander and the Christian-dominated later Roman Empire. Greece and Rome, he argues, must be fitted into the global history of their day: what did Persians think of Greeks and how does the Roman empire stack up to China''s? With vivid examples and animation from award-winning Cognitive at every stage, this is the ideal introduction to the ancient world for general readers and students.
