Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is a meticulous examination of the historical and archaeological details of the Roman countryside surrounding the ancient city of Rome. The author has used sources from the Classical period to the present day to compile this comprehensive account of Roman infrastructure outside the capital's boundaries. After introducing the reader to some of the Roman historians who have discussed the area, the author sets out on a meticulous journey along three key roads leading out of Rome, describing the monuments, tombs, and villas that lie along their routes. The author considers not just the roads themselves, but the towns and villages that grew up around them, giving fascinating insights into the social, economic, and cultural life of the Roman people. Richly illustrated with photographs and maps of the sites discussed, the book gives the reader a chance to journey back to antiquity and experience the Roman Empire in all its grandeur.
