Excellent--very knowledgeable,
By A Customer
This review is from: Etruscan Italy: Etruscan Influences on the Civilizations of Italy from Antiquity to the Modern Era (M. Seth and Maurine D. Horne Center for the Study of Art Scholarly Series) (Hardcover)
This is an excellent book! I used it in one of my classes in college. It really gives insight into daily details of the lives of the Etruscans, which also helps you to understand the Romans better. Very well written, by good scholars.

Dr. Hall was one of my professors as well, and he definitely knows what he's talking about. This book was extremely helpful in all of my classics courses, especially Roman History and translating Livy's Ab Urbe Condita. I'd recommend it to anyone.

I actually haven't read this book yet but it is written by my Greek and Roman Mythology professeur. He's an amazing man. He knows so much about the subject that I'm sure this is a great book.
