Rezensionen
"Intriguing. . . . A lucid analysis of Nero and the Great Fire, enhanced by Barrett's clear, engaging style, his obvious love of his subject, and an extensive selection of maps, schematics and photographs. Historically minded visitors to Rome as well as Roman-history enthusiasts will appreciate the erudition and context with which he illuminates one of the great stories—and personalities—of the ancient world."—Diana Preston, Washington Post
