Book Reviews of City Secrets: Rome
Book Review: rome-ah... wish I had more time
Summary: 4 Stars
this is not a travel journal as much as a history book. I will keep in my library because I love rome and will return again. Read this in advance of your trip and get a moons book for carrying with you. this is great advanced reading with great off the beaten path stuff but read ahead of time and take a more generic book with you and some notes rather than carrying this as extra weight. Also if you thinking about rome (why think...do it) read this to get excited about how rich in history and architecture this great city is then book your tickets and go.
Summary of City Secrets: Rome
This unique compilation of insights into the world's most magnificent art, architecture and antiquities, by the people who know them best, unlocks the door to the Rome most visitors miss.A renowned painter shows the way to an overlooked masterpiece; an archaeologist walks you through an intriguing ancient ruin; a Renaissance scholar tells which of Michelangelo's works he finds the most moving of all. Along the way a poet laureate imparts the address of a gourmet cheese shop with its own pizzeria and an acclaimed director sets the stage for an ideal Roman afternoon.
City Secrets Rome reveals the city that will take your breath away. Organized by area; with colour maps, vintage photographs and illustrations.
