You can get books sent almost any where in the world for free on Book Depository where I get these books shipped from Great Britain at quite a deep discount. And not for NOTHING as I like saving money.
After I read it I send them to my older brother who also likes stories of ancient Rome. He has actually been touring Rome a few times. Me, I still do not even have a passport. Just been to Canada and Mexico and perhaps 42 of the US states.

I do hope that the Scarrow Macro and Cato books get to the Year of the Four Emperors of 69 AD. Quite a violent mess with various Roman provinces fighting each other to get their military leader on the Roman throne. And not for NOTHING.
