Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Year-Book of the Bibliographical Society of Chicago, 1902-1903
The German Archaeological Institute, occupying a large palace high up on the Tarpeian Rock, has a good library, in which the historical student will find much that is useful. Of all such institutions, the Ecole Francaise is probably the best equipped. At its head is the famous Abbe Duchesne, the king of critics. Its library is large and well selected and contains complete files of all the best historical magazines. It has a magnificent home in the Farnese palace.
