Description
|
|
|
|
In this unique guidebook, former U.S. diplomat Frederick Vreeland and his artist wife Vanessa take readers and visitors on a trip through time in the city they have come to love, from the ruins of ancient Rome to its Renaissance palaces, and its 21st-century shops and restaurants. Illustrated on every page with pictorial maps, color reproductions of art, or photographs (and sometimes all three at once), the book offers succinct and anecdotal descriptions of Roman culture and sights, framed by historical timelines and punctuated by "must-see" highlights. A comprehensive reference section at the back details day trips of interest, a guide to Italian food, "Rome by Night" and "Rome for Kids," as well as transportation facts, and hotel and restaurant suggestions. "Easily the handsomest and most useful guide to the city that likes to call itself eternal."—Gore Vidal
