  This book is taken from a series featuring line drawings keyed to the text, narrative and stage by stage detailed artwork to illustrate the development of a town through the centuries. Each book features a reconstruction of an imaginary town in a different part of the world, having a distinctive character that relates to the region in which it is situated. This book in particular deals with a town in the Mediterranean, and depicts the history of a typical town in Southern Europe. This book takes the reader on a journey through the centuries, tracing the development of the town from a walled hilltop settlement to a great 20th century metropolis. The detailed artwork has been drawn by qualified architectural draughtsmen.
