As we follow the path of this somewhat wayward bird, we discover that Rome is a place where past and present live side by side. Every time a corner is turned there is a surprise, just as every turn of the page brings a new perspective.
This juxtaposition of ancient and modern, as seen with David Macaulay’s ingenious vision, gives the reader an imaginative and informative journey through this wondrous city.
“Macaulay’s latest celebration of architecture delights in showing how past and present coexist in this ancient city. . . . A visual love letter to the city of Rome. A natural choice for classroom use and a terrific way to whet readers’ appetites for Macaulay’s earlier titles, such as City.” Booklist, ALA
