The Way People Live - Life of a Roman Gladiator

Hardcover (Lucent Books April 15, 2003) , 1 edition
Today, gladiators-warriors who fought to death to entertain the masses-are among the chief enduring symbols of ancient Rome. In stunning detail, a noted historian presents a carefully documented narrative of the recruitment, training, social status, living conditions, weapons, and combat of these men and women who, ironically, were treated both as sports heroes and social outcasts.
