[Jennifer · Rating 4 out of 5]

Wonderful color photos of Rome Monuments that show you what they currently look like and then a color overlay on clear plastic page that shows what they originally looked like when they were constructed. It really is a fascinating little book. Of course there is brief historical information on the monuments too.
