"The authors point out that the Colosseum was constructed for the enjoyment of murder. They explain the role of that famous monument in Roman history and politics—a scene of animals sent to fight each other, public executions, and gladiators. A fascinating account for the fan of European history,"—Booklist. 224 pages, softcover. Harvard University.
