Here is the first new translation for over thirty years of Polybius' Histories, the major source for our knowledge of the Eternal City's early rise to power, covering the years of the Second Punic War, the defeat of Hannibal, and Rome's pivotal victories in the Mediterranean. Polybius, himself a leading Greek politician of the time, attributes Rome's success to the greatness of its constitution and the character of its people, but also allows Fortune a role in shaping world events. This new translation by Robin Waterfield includes the first five books in their entirety, and all of the fragmentary Books 6 and 12. Brian McGing's lucid introduction discusses the period covered by the Histories, Polybius' major role in the reconstruction of Greece after the defeat of the Achaean League, the themes and subject matter of the individual books, Polybius' outspoken views on how (and how not), and his significance for historiography. The book also includes succinct, clear notes, maps, a glossary, and an index of proper names. About the Series: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the broadest spectrum of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, voluminous notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.Binding Type: Paperback

Love these hoops!
Color: Yellow Gold
These hoops are so cute! They don’t bother my ears at all. I love the size of them, and they can be casual or dressed up. They come in a cute little bags that would be good for gifting them in.

3 pairs of ear rings
Color: Yellow Gold, Color: Yellow Gold
There are three pairs of ear hoops in the package, all golden color. There are in a nice blue bag.
Unlike the other ear rings I have, this kind of ear hoops do not require a ring stopper, just like a small clip, which also makes it a little challenging for me to put on them. The thin stick portion through the ear is a little thick. It took me a while to get used to it. But soon I like it. Overall the ring hoops look quite pretty.

i LOVE these sunglass. I found some at TJ Maxx for 12 bucks on sale because they were cracked. Tried them on and new I wanted to find them only. They are not too big for my face, but could be form some people. I wore them every day on vacation in Mexico, and the sunshine did not bother me.

i had bought these prior in dilards, but in a darker color. i fell in love with them and when they got scratched up i got so sad. i accidentally stumbled upon them here in this lighter color and OMG they’re so much nicer in this color! you don’t nearly see the scratches as much or if even. and it looks so much nicer with all of the colors i wear. it fits the face so beautifully. gorgeous!
