First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good-. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. Illustrated by Schwartz, Daniel [cover] (illustrator). First Edition. 304 pp. Red boards with black cloth spine. Spine slanted with 1/2" tear at top. DJ in new Brodart protective plastic wrap. DJ has 1/4" chips at spine and flap ends, some edgewear and creasing. Text is clean and unmarked. "The Tribune Claudius Cinna had won glory and the title of 'the one savage who pleased Rome,' yet he found his triumphant like empty. Arminius, Prince of the German tribe, the Cherusci, 'looked more Roman than German,' yet he hated Rome and longed to free his people. The girl, Thessia, did not fear the Roman enemy. 'Let them come soon,' she said, hating only the filth and cold and barrenness of her people's life. The youth, the fisher from Marsilia, knew nothing of war or love except his dreams. The governing passions of these four strangely assorted people - their passions for love, for freedom, for comfort and for fulfillment - played dominant and conflicting parts in the events that led to one of the decisive battles of history. This novel of the time of Augustus Caesar combines a stirringly dramatic story with mature and subtle characterization."; 7¾" - 9¾" Tall.

Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: good. First edition. Shelf wear (about what one would expect) to the book and jacket which is clipped next to the price. Clean and unmarked. First printing stated at copyright page. An historical novel set in the time of Augustus Caesar. "It is a tale of the legionnaires- and their officers, of Cinna, who was a sort of Roman Patton, of cowardice and courage. And always of brutality, in peace and war. Perhaps the remoteness of the period makes one read and know it with a kind of detachment. Gregory Solon, in a memorable first novel, makes you feel it too. This might be read as predecessor to Helen White's The Four Rivers of Paradise, a story of the sack of Rome, as a story of the turn in the tide of victory which made the sack of Rome possible. Solon is a writer to watch." - Kirkus Review. Most items ship with free delivery confirmation, electronic tracking and jacket protectors (generally over $10.00) if applicable. Clean recycled packing material will be used when possible.
