Description
"From Sicily and ancient Syracuse to the Middle East with Jerusalem and Babylon, from Anurâdhapura in Ceylon, to the great Mediterranean cultures of Carthage, Rome and Constantinople--wherever civilization flourished in the ancient world, great cities grew. In this lavishly illustrated book, L. Sprague de Camp portrays the magnificence of fourteen ancient cities at their height. With detailed maps and careful reconstruction, he outlines the plan and layout of each city."--Publisher's description.
