Recenzii

'The scope of his work is vast: from tree-trunk and brickyard to taberna, from marble quarry to temple. His text is clear, straight-forward and accessible to readers of most levels.' - JACT Review

'This is a truly massive and magnificent book, much revised and enlarged since the first edition in 1989.' - Minerva

'This superb monograph with its excellent photographs and diagrams ... is by far the best account of the subject available.' - British Archaeological News

'Recommended to classical scholars as a rich source of information on material culture, and a model of visual presentation.' - Kevin Greene, L'Antiquite Classique

Textul de pe ultima copertă

Now in paperback, Roman Buildings is a thorough and systematic examination of Roman architecture and building practice, with over 750 illustrations . It looks at large- scale public buildings as well as more modest homes and shops. Placing emphasis on the technical aspects of the subject, it follows the process of building through each stage -- from quarry to standing wall, from tree to roof timbers -- and how these materials were obtained or manufactured. The author also discusses interior decoration and looks at the practical aspects of water supply, heating and roads.
