| Summary, etc.: | "Ancient Rome was full of powerful emperors, fierce armies, and superstrong gladiators. But at times it was also seriously strange. Romans of the past pooped in public and watched chickens eat to determine their luck. Some even went to a fancy dinner where they were gifted with personalized silver gravestones on their way out the door. Uncover the terrible tales, surprising stories, and hard-to-believe history in ancient Rome"--Provided by publisher. |
