About this title

Review:

"An original and substantial contribution to the field, the fruit of thirty years' experience and accurate, affectionate observation. It will be the authoritative work in English." -- Keeping Ancient Rome Alive

"This is not only an excellent, up-to-date summation of previous scholarship and excavation but also, and especially, the product of four decades of examination, research, and reflection on Pompeii by one who knows the ancient city better than any scholar of the current generation." -- Classical World

Book Description:

"There has long been a need for a comprehensive account in English of the architecture and urban development of Pompeii. Richardson's book makes a valiant effort to remedy the deficiency, and will be particularly welcome to all students of Roman architecture" -- Classical Review
