... thorough, wide-ranging, thoroughly entertaining ... From beginning to end, The Rhetoric of Roman Transportation is an eye-opening and enjoyable ride. The book is written with wit and an evident enthusiasm for the subject matter, and the prose is replete with cultural references.' James Uden, Bryn Mawr Classical Review
