Sample Book Insights:
#1 The Romans were able to buy the Sibyl’s books, which contained prophecies of great importance to the Romans. The Romans soon realized that only one woman could have written them – the Sibyl.
#2 The Roman Republic was very sensitive about the information in the books left behind by the exiled Tarquin. Only in the most dire situations was it allowed to consult the books, and then only by special magistrates.
#3 The Romans had a deep-seated aversion to change. They saw it as a threat to their way of life, and they never ceased to invest in their city by holding true to the customs of their ancestors.
#4 The Romans were a very competitive people, but they were also taught to temper their instincts for the common good in their relations with others. They were, however, extremely ruthless in their relations with their enemies.
