M. A. Seifter
3.0 out of 5 stars Roman History textbook
Reviewed in the United States on April 23, 2017

This volume is written as a university textbook covering the history of ancient Rome. It gives especial length and treatment to political developments within Rome and military-diplomatic engagements abroad. (It was the textbook I used in graduate school for a survey course on Roman history.) Yet it doesn't present similar detail to the cultural or social side of Rome, and this element I missed. First published in 1921, its successive editions largely preserved this treatment. There are far too few illustrations for my own preference, though there are sufficient number of high quality maps. The author's style of writing is too often old-style professorial, dry and occasionally tedious, but within its limits, it is a worthwhile read for those who wish to devote sufficient time for studying it, and a comprehensive, scholarly, and fair analysis of the spectacle of ancient Rome, from its beginnings up to the mid-6th century CE.

Bought Boak and Sinnigen in 1968 as prescribed basic text for Classics degree;lent it to an acquaintance c8 years ago and never got it back.If one wants a clear,comprehensive history of Rome for the non specialist,this is an excellent text.
