  The legendary she-wolf who suckled Romulus and Remus, the powerful Vestal Virgins, the Empress Livia and the crowned Madonna haunt the ruins, palaces, museums and churches of Rome, offering special perspectives for the woman traveller. For the independent woman traveller, intent on getting the most out of the city, day and night, and on varied budgets, this guide is a useful companion, with listings of galleries, shops and smart cafes. There is also information on hotels and restaurants and avoiding potential harassment. The information is from a woman's point of view: history, art, contemporary society and culture; advice and recommendations on hotels and restaurants, public transport and a special section for children.
