"ANCIENT ROME IN 50 MONUMENTS" by Paul Roberts is a comprehensive exploration of the history and architecture of Ancient Rome. The book goes beyond the well-known names and buildings to provide a wider history of the city and its inhabitants, from the reign of kings to the rise and fall of the Empire. It examines the stories of famous monuments, their significance to the people who used them, and their evolution over time. The book is visually engaging, with images and "pop out" boxes providing further insight into Roman society, life, and architecture. It is suitable for both those with an established interest in Ancient Rome and those new to the subject. [Extracted from the article] |
