Naphtali Lewis and Meyer Reinhold's Roman Civilization is a classic. Originally published by Columbia University Press in 1955, the authors have undertaken another revision which takes into account recent work in the field. These volumes consist of selected primary documents from ancient Rome, covering a range of over 1,000 years of Roman culture, from the foundation of the city to its sacking by the Goths.
The selections cover a broad spectrum of Roman civilization, including literature, philosophy, religion, education, politics, military affairs, and economics. These English translations of literary, inscriptional, and papyrological sources, many of which are available nowhere else, create a mosaic of the brilliance, the beauty, and the power of Rome.

In company with Sallust, Cicero, Tacitus, Livy, you will learn wisdom and virtue. (John Adams to John Quincy Adams)
Were every Greek and Latin book ... consumed in a bonfire the world would be the wiser and better for it. (Benjamin Rush) 
How did Americans in the early period of our history view the classics, the legacy of the Greco-Roman world? Venerated by some as one of the most valuable forms of useful know ledge, the classics provided symbols and role models for the new American cultural and political thought. But the wisdom of the classics was also seen as non-utilitarian, without the practical application of such studies as mathematics and "mechanicks," and there was a persistent stream of antagonism to classical studies. The obvious tension between the desire to pattern American government after classical models and the need to cut the ties with the past of the Revolutionary period eventually led to disenchantment with the classical tradition and the abandonment of the search for parallels from antiquity prized by the Founding Fathers, the Federalists, and the Whigs. 
In this first comprehensive study of the American classical heritage, Meyer Reinhold discusses the function of the classics in American society, their "use, misuse, and abuse," in a historical approach that details the diversity and uniqueness of American perceptions of antiquity.
