A unique pocket-sized book of colour photographs that takes the reader on a journey into the past with its see-through reconstructions of the greatest monuments of Ancient Rome superimposed over the same monuments as they look today. Translated into 10 languages, the book starts with a brief history of Ancient Rome and goes on to describe the many sites, monuments and archaeological areas of Rome, Hadrian's Villa, and Pompeii. A final chapter is devoted to St. Peter's Basilica though the centuries, with description, drawings and photographs.
