Raymond and Patricia Chase are former schoolteachers. Over the past 20 years, they've been to 25 countries on three continents all in pursuit of Greek and Roman ruins. The result, a huge guidebook to all the sites, illustrated with their own photographs. The book is titled, "Ancient Hellenistic and Roman Amphitheatres, Stadiums and Theatres." We hear about their travels and experiences, and the straight-out-of-an-old-movie way they met decades ago.
