Books on Classical Studies?
I am interested in learning more about the ancient world. I have an A level in History of Art but I wish I had continued it further. I was just wondering if anyone knew of any decent books which deal with ancient civilisations. I have done the Greeks and the Romans .. I want to go further back. Or even revisit the Greeks and the romans. Any books at all that you have enjoyed would be greatly appreciated. I want to broaden my knowledge.
Ebooks are also welcome.
Thanks 
This list should keep you busy for a long time…(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loeb_Classical_Library) if you continue to read about Greek and Latin civilizations.
For ancient Egyptian history, tis is a nice little list: http://www.ancient-egypt.org/index.html
All of the Loeb titles are considered to be well edited and are respected in academia.
