Gladiators (Library Binding) (ISBN-13: 9798889896463)

Gladiators fought not for land or riches but for the violent, bloody entertainment of the emperor and people of Ancient Rome. Slaves, criminals, hostages, and occasional volunteers faced each other in amphitheater battles for one purpose: to kill or be killed. Strong and well-trained, they were the equivalent of modern-day sports heroes. This title for readers age 12 and up surveys the history of the warriors. It covers key fighters, weapons, combat skills, and rules of warfare. Includes a glossary, sidebars, index, and further resources.
