Produktbeschreibung
"Not Built in a Day presents twelve "walking tours" that cover 200 sites and move beyond the traditional guidebook by being a more personal and instructive text on Rome's piazzas, streets, outdoor fountains, ancient ruins, and famous buildings. Where other guides shy away from expressing a strong personal viewpoint, the author doesn't hesitate to voice his opinion. He includes detailed analyses that will help readers see why so many of Rome's buildings and monuments are considered architecturally important. This book creates an interactive process between the reader, the text, and the architectural style -- a repeated cycle of reading-looking-comprehending that in the end leads the reader not only to appreciate the buildings and monuments of Rome, but to enjoy architecture in general.
