Including essays from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, this volumes exposes the struggles and triumphs of these fighters to the enduring legacy of their barbaric profession. A perfect collection for history enthusiasts and those with an interest in the culture of ancient Rome, offering readers a chance to witness the grandeur and brutality of Rome's most infamous games.
