How to Survive in Ancient Greece by Robert Garland

4.0

Found this to be an enjoyable and informative read. It's not textbook-deep into Greek history, but it covers what's necessary to give context and paint a picture of this Athens 'we' are going to get lost in. Found it to be very descriptive, knowing what it was talking about, and that eternal little touch of humor throughout, in the slightly sartorial tone, made this an even more enjoyable journey. Perfect if you want to know more about Ancient Greece (say after watching movies like 300 and 300: Rise of an Empire) to put you further into that world
