@caitlinrgreen I owe all my knowledge of antiquity to Colin McEvedy's books. -
@roger_pearse I loved them so much, especially the ones dealing with antiquity--marvellous! :) -
@caitlinrgreen Me too! I read them again and again. My copies are upstairs now. But at what age did you read them? -
@roger_pearse When I was relatively small--remember having a bit of an obsession w/ Assyrians, Sumerians, Greeks etc when maybe 9 or 10? -
@caitlinrgreen Assyrians etc around 12-13 -
@roger_pearse Ah, I think I was just starting to get interested in Roman and medieval stuff about then :) -
@caitlinrgreen I was in Cyprus and camping in the ruins of Roman cities. And hoping to go to Egypt (in vain).

@caitlinrgreen I still use them for lectures - the clarity is a great strength when projected! -
@AndrewAyton oh, now that is a good point! I just wish the projection was the same as that which I use for distribution maps...!
