Book Description
Excerpt from Regal Rome: An Introduction to Roman History In attempting to reconstruct the picture Of most ancient Rome, much aid is gained from the singu lar adherence of the Romans to precedent and form in the development of their constitution. This Often enables the modern critic to read the ancient state Of things, as the print in a rock shows to a geologist the nature of the leaf which marked it.

Book Description
Excerpt from Roman History The attempt to derive from the name of the city Of Rome certain conclusions as to its origin has been unsuccessful; those who would connect the word Roma with the name of the primitive river-god Ramon perhaps approach nearest to the truth, for the navigable stream was naturally the most important factor for the settlement on the Tiber, and Old Roman coins actually exhibit to us as stamp the stern of a ship, which we therefore may regard as the city's first escutcheon.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Study of Roman History The aim of this little book is different. As a tutor in Roman History, I have at times been accused by worried pupils of delighting over much in the heuristic method. This simply means that I like asking them questions and dislike impart ing information in tabloid shape. This is really the main object of this book also - to ask questions, to suggest to any student who may read it subjects for his own consideration and research. It has certainly not been my primary object to tell once more the often-repeated tale of Rome's history. To be in charge of a working-party in a trench has some advantages as well as responsibilities. To direct, to encourage, at times to take a hand this is similarly my desire in this book. Above all, it is meant to provoke enquiry, if not dissent, by the workers (a proceeding viewed with less favour in a trench). I hope that its main feature may turn out to be as it were a menu to the banquet. If taken as the banquet itself it will be Barmecide fare.

Book Description
Excerpt from A Source Book of Roman History Easily accessible translations have been used wherever it was possible. In the appendix I have indicated after the name of each author the translation used. Here no name is given, the extracts were translated either by Mr. R. F. Scholz or by myself. In using the translations I have made a few slight changes in wording and punctuation. I have usually retained any important notes given in the translations. The illustrations are intended merely to suggest that pictures form a very important class of sources. In the appendix brief statements are given as to the provenance and description of these pictures. Most of our text-books are well illustrated, and their pictures should be utilized as far as possible for class room exercises. No fancy-pictures should be so used; only representations of actual remains, of statuary, or of Roman drawings. The students should describe what the picture represents and its historic importance.

Excerpt from Goldsmith's Roman History: For the Use of Schools To these objections there are some who may add that I have rejected many of the modern improvements in Roman history, and that every character is left in. Full possession of that fame or infamy which it obtained from its contemporaries, or those who wrote immedi ately after. I acknowledge the charge, for it appears now too late to rejudge the virtues or the vices of those men who were but very incompletely known even to their own historians. The Romans, perhaps, upon ma ny occasions, formed wrong ideas of virtue but they were by no means so ignorant or abandoned in general as not to give their brightest characters the greatest share of their applause and I do not know whether it be fair to try Pagan actions by the stanthrd of Christian morality.

Excerpt from Characters and Events of Roman History: From Caesar to Nero Such is the record of the book now presented to the public at large. It is a work necessarily made up of detached studies, which, however, are bound together by a central, unifying thought; so that the reading of them may prove useful and pleasant even to those who have already read my Greatness and Decline of Rome.
