A lively look at the classical world
<p>A second heavily researched book about Greeks and Romans has arrived in time for winter reading. The book is “Insane Emperors, Sunken Cities, and Earthquake Machines.” The author is classics-trained Chicago native Garrett Ryan.</p>
<p>The 2023 book follows the same pattern of a similar 2021 book with three- to five-page chapters each addressing a specific aspect of ancient life, such as “Did the Ancient Greeks and Romans Wear Swimsuits?” or “Why Were the Noses of Ancient Statues broken?” (Spoiler alerts: yes and to kill the spirits within.)</p>
