Mystery of the Roman Ransom by Henry Winterfeld
In these two delightful history-mysteries, seven boys in Ancient Rome solve strange crimes . . . thanks to some help from their cranky teacher, a little bit of logic, and a lot of amusing misadventure.It seems the boys can get nothing right: Their teacher's fiftieth birthday is long past (they should have done their math homework); the servant they bought as a present for his birthday isn't just your run-of-the-mill Gaul slave but a courier running for his life; and, to top it all off, the message he's carrying requests the assassination of a Roman senator--the father of one of the boys.
Henry Winterfeld (1901-1990), a German author and artist, immigrated to the United States in 1940. Castaways in Lilliput and Trouble at Timpetill are two of his children's and young adult works. He also published works under the pen name Manfred Michael.
