If you only buy one History book this year .....

[Brovion]

... make sure it's this one:

The Roman Nude

 

[Theatre of Trees]

'The naked emperor might wield the thunderbolt of Jupiter'

Haven't heard it called that before.

 

[Man of Harveys]

'The naked emperor might wield the thunderbolt of Jupiter'

As chatup lines go, that's a stormer.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Infamy! Infamy!

 

[Brovion]

Come on! It's a serious book! Also I did have an ulterior motive for posting the link, the author (Christopher Hallett) is my brother-in-law and this is his first solo publication as opposed to a collaboration.

You can order it from places like Waterstones, it IS a tad expensive (works out at about £80 a copy) but well worth it. My wife's bleeding me dry at the moment buying copies to give as presents to family and friends.

I beleive everything you said there, except for the "Come on! It's a serious book!" part

This man wanks as high as any man in Wome.

It is! Do you know when they find a statue how they tell who it's supposed to be? It's by the hairstyle. It's all fascinating stuff and all you want to do is laugh at a man's hard work. I'm off to post the same link on NSP, I'm sure THEY'LL take it seriously!

*FLOUNCE*

 

[Man of Harveys]

Like Steven Wright, I went to a museum, and it had all the heads and arms of the statues that were in all the other museums.

Blimey! That IS a tad expensive! What's a Grecian Urn?

 

[Bry Nylon]

Any plans to do "Roman Nude Reader's Wives"?

If so, put me down for half a dozen

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Who in their right mind would pay eighty quid for nekkid pictures of Abramovich anyway
