from Random House Books for Young Readers
Price: $4.99

Customer Review:
I was so excited when I came across these 'research guides' in a used book store, they are a wonderful addition! My kids have enjoyed the series so much, but the books are a little young for some fans, but they love getting the research guide to deepen their understanding of the settings and get... more info

2.The Naked Olympics: The True Story of the Ancient GamesThe Naked Olympics: The True Story of the Ancient Games
from Random House Trade Paperbacks
Price: $11.16

Customer Review:
I've never been a sports fan, so I thought I might find this book rather a bore. But in fact there isn't a dull moment in this very entertaining account of what the Olympic Games were like in ancient Greece.
It is fascinating to learn that the games themselves were only a part of the events... more info

3.Slaying the Dragon: How to Turn Your Small Steps to Great FeatsSlaying the Dragon: How to Turn Your Small Steps to Great Feats
from HarperCollins

Customer Review:
Not what I expected at all. Less auto-biographical and more how to set goals and achieve in life.
I was looking for something that got behind the public persona of Michael Johnson ... but this was touched on only a little with no real insight into Michael Johnson the man. I managed to read this... more info

Gene Kraay masterfully introduces us into the ancient world of Greece.

5.The Ancient Olympics: A HistoryThe Ancient Olympics: A History
from Oxford University Press, USA
Price: $11.53

Customer Review:
I cannot praise enough the excellence of Nigel Spivey's research and presentation involved with the ancient Olympics.
The craftsmanship of his narrative is first-rate and there is a refreshing candor and lack of romanticizing regarding this event and the times surrounding it.
Mr. Spivey... more info

Customer Review:
I am here reviewing C. M. Bowra's translation of "The Odes of Pindar" for the Penguin Classics, not Richmond Lattimore's version from the University of Chicago Press, my review of which has been appearing under this heading as well. Fortunately, I rank Bowra's work as highly as Lattimore's, so I... more info

from Mithec
Price: $9.95

Customer Review:
The professional historians faint as prominent mathematician Doctor Fomenko et al research the known historical data and come to fairly controversial conclusions.
For example, the English historians rage at the suggestion that the history of Ancient England was de facto a Byzantine import... more info
