It would be pretty tough to argue that this isn't a great book. J.A. Crook provides a very through overview of Roman law and procedure from roughly 90 B.C.E. to 212 C.E. Under such rubrics as commerce, labor, and status, Crook explains in minute detail the workings of law as it related to society and social relations. Beware, this is specialized Roman history. A beginner could be in trouble if he is not aware of at least a basic outline of Roman history and society.....
