Consul Brutus;
My thanks for your article in the Collegium Militarium about the Roman Trade Routes and your very interesting picture. The article was quite interesting, and your suggestion about further reading was equally so. I would very much like to read the book that you recommend. However, on going to the site in Amazon in order to find and order the book, I find that such a book prices at $136.00. Added to that, of course, is the shipping cost. For those who are looking for a cheaper volume several others can be purchased for about $113, plus shipping. Another book by the same author about the same subject sells for about $36, plus shipping. Unfortunately, these kinds of prices will preclude me from the excitement and knowledge gained from such reading. I will have to sustain my history, in this area, from my suggested tome which I got at a library sale for $1.00. My thanks though, for the information, that perhaps others who read this, and who may be able to afford this book, will be able to take part in the wonders that you have promised.
Respectfully Submitted;
Marcus Audens
