Rose Williams grew up in West Texas and developed a love affair with the ancient Romans. She taught Latin in high school and college for many years. She now writes books in both English and Latin about history as impacted by the Romans and the ubiquitous Latin language. One of her earliest books is "Latin Quips at your Fingertips." Her "Gods and Other Odd Creatures," "The Original Dysfunctional Family," and "The Clay-footed Superheroes" romp through ancient mythology. "Once Upon the Tiber" and "The Lighter Side of the Dark Ages" are brief histories which combine a passion for accurate details with an acute sense of the human tragicomedy.
