Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from To and From Rome
Previously to visiting Rome I often contemplated what sort of a place I would find. I had it all pictured in my mind the Appian Way and the Aqueduct of Claudius. These were the first I saw in entering Rome. The Appian Way, which I thought was built of solid masonry, with Julius Caesar's and his con temporaries' tombs Ou either of the Way. Instead thereof 1 found Appian Way was only a macadamized road 25 feet wide, entering Rome, and was 180 miles long, and Claudius Aqueduct was built about 20 feet from the ground. Rome now is a modern city in all.
