  Originally published over 50 years ago as Vita Romana , this work covers every aspect of Roman life: the architecture and layout of the city; the home, clothes, travel, sports and pastimes; the role of women; industry, education, law, culture and medicine. It covers the entire history of Rome to the invasions of the Goths and the Vandals, and then assesses Rome's subsequent architectural decay and recent restoration.
