Higgins has witten a great little book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
Charlotte Higgins has written an eminently readable book on Ancient Greece that has whet my appetite for more on this subject. I studied Ancient Greek history and mythology at school and, 30 years on, have forgotten just about everything I learned. I am now sufficiently inspired to put together a reading list (and Ms Higgins has some fine suggestions) to remedy this lacuna. Highly recommended to all those wanting to revisit the foundations of our civilisation after a long absence.
