Sinopsis
Menedemos, the young dashing sea captain, and his helper, the scholarly Sostratos, are sea-traders from the Greek island of Rhodes. Fearless sailors, they will travel any distance to make a profit or to search for rich treasures.
While they trade in fineries such as wine and silk (and even, to the chagrin of many, peacocks), they live in dangerous times with pirates, thieves and barbarians. As if avoiding death by the hands of these miscreants isnt enough (particularly the barbarians from an obscure town called Rome), they are also caught between the political intrigues of Alexanders former generals.
This book was originally published under the authors psueodnym of H.N. Turteltaub.
"A mountain of solid scholarship entertainingly dished out"—Publishers Weekly
