Tom Chaney: Roma: from salt makers to the Ides of March Of Writers And Their Books: Roma: from salt makers to the Ides of March. Tom reviews a sprawling historical novel, Roma, focusing upon two families present for an entire millennium merging in the person of Gaius Julius Caesar. This column first appeared 22 July 2007. The next earlier Tom Chaney column: Davis McCombs in Lexington By Tom Chaney Roma: from salt makers to the Ides of March Steven Saylor is one of the most interesting writers to come down the pike in the last few years. I found the first of his "Roma Sub Rosa" series by accident one day in The Bookstore. You probably know by now that I am a fan of mystery and detective novels. Historical mysteries have of late intrigued me. Brother Cadfael in a monastery along the Welsh border in the twelfth century; Sister Fidelma, the Irish judge of the seventh century -- books about them and others have provided entertainment as well as great information about life in other times. Saylor chose the Rome of Julius Caesar for the setting of his "Roma Sub Rosa" mysteries. His delightful detective, Gordianus the Finder, is a private eye clad in a toga.
