In this new edition, in which Andrew Goldman has joined Charles Gates in updating the volume, readers and lecturers will be delighted to see a major revision of the chapters on Greek cities in South Italy and Sicily, the Etruscans, the development of the capital city, Rome, during the Republic as well as the Empire, and the end of the ancient city.This new edition includes several new and updated user-friendly features, such as:• Clear and accessible language, assuming no previous background knowledge.• Lavishly illustrated, with almost 350 line drawings, maps, and photographs, including new contributions from Neslihan Yilmaz Tekman adding to her already acclaimed illustrations.• Suggestions for further reading for each chapter.• A companion website with images, study guides, and an interactive timeline.
