A Gladiator & A Great Guidebook
Bookmark and Share
The Gladiator’s life was short-lived, the life of those thrown into the Coliseum was horrific. So much blood was spilled that it is hard to comprehend. As the tourists journey through the world's most famous amphitheater, do they know how many lives ended to the roar of the crowd? Do they know how much blood was spilled? How many animals died? Anthony will then discuss a great guidebook and audio tour...his own. It seems a bit hubrisitic, but it is a good book and it’s his radio show. Finally we’ll wrap with Kathy McCabe of Dream of Italy and Janice Mancuso of 31 Days of Italians.
