An Interesting Read,
By Aussie Reader ""Rick"" (Canberra, Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Celt and Greek: Celts in the Hellenic World (Celtic Interest) (Hardcover)
I'm no expert in this period of history, I have an understanding of the cultures and countries involved and as such I enjoyed this book very much. I have read an earlier book by this author 'The Celtic Empire' which I thought was a well written and presented account of the Celtic people. This led me to purchase this book and I will more than likely buy his latest account of the Celts titled 'Celt & Roman'. In this book the author covers the Celts during the period of the time when Greece and Rome were the dominate players in the ancient world. Its an enjoyable read and I learnt a few things on the journey. The book covers their social background and inter-action with other people along with their military campaigns against the Greeks and Romans and their occassional mercenary role in the ancient armies. The author does not go into excessive detail but certainly provides the facts as he knows them and tells a good story in the process. |
