You'll learn the meaning behind the monuments, the layers of history beneath your feet, and how Rome became on of the world's ultimate travel destinations. Whether you're heading to Rome yourself or giving it as a gift, this book will help any traveler move beyond sightseeing into real understanding. Rome isn't just a city to see. It's a story to join.
