HISTORY-

The whole period of Roman History is covered in the three following works:

Theodor Mommsen, History of Rome, 5 vol. Scribner's, 1903. $20.00 (to the establishment of the Empire). Same in Everyman's Library, 35 cents a volume, Dutton.

Charles Merivale, History of the Romans under the Empire. 8 vol. Longman's, 1890. $10.00. (Early empire.)

Edward Gibbon, The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, edited by Bury, 7 vol. Macmillan, 1896-1902. $14.00. (Late empire.)

The following small but excellent works will cover nearly the whole period to the Age of the Antonines. The books are published by Putnam at $1.00 a volume:

Ihne, Early Rome.

Smith, Rome and Carthage.

Beesley, The Gracchi, Marius and Sulla.

Merivale, The Roman Triumvirate.

MYTHOLOGY

Harper's Dictionary of Antiquities mentioned above will supply most of the information desired. Fairbank, Greek and Roman Mythology, Appleton, $1.50.

LITERATURE--

McKail, Latin Literature ($1.00), Scribner's, is excellent but brief. Cruttwell, History of Roman Literature ($2.50), Scribner's, is on the whole the most satisfactory for high-school reference purposes.

The Cybulski series of colored charts published by Koehier, Leipsic. is exceedingly helpful. They would best be ordered through a local book dealer. The following are those that will interest the Latin teacher.

No. 4. Ships.

No. 5. Roman Arms.
