The book begins by making the point that it is non-judgemental and does not intend to come down in favour of either Ancient Rome or Modern America. It intends to provide arguments and reasoning to allow the reader to make his/her own judgements. The author begins by asking the reader to question what is understood by 'progress'. Guglielmo Ferrero (1871-1942) was an Italian historian, journalist and novelist, who devoted his writings to classical liberalism. He was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature twenty times in six years.

Excerpt from Ancient Rome and Modern America: A Comparative Study of Morals and Manners The reader will find in the following pages reference to another work by Dr. Ferrero which will shortly come into publication under the title of Between the Old World and the New. It is in order to explain that Between the Old World and the New was brought into print in continental editions (in Italy, in France and elsewhere) before the publication of the present work. The author has, however, decided, that for the English-speaking readers of the two volumes it would be advisable to change the order of publication and to issue first this study of Morals and Manners. The second book, Between the Old World and the New, will appear, in New York and in London, early in the autumn of 1914.
