The homes of ancient Rome varied largely by the class of the homeowner. Wealthy, powerful Romans often had houses with open courtyards with decorative fountains, while the plebeians lived in small, closed apartments. This book opens the door to the ins and outs of Roman homes and the daily lives that occurred inside them. Rich illustrations capture they eye and imagination, and quote panels from texts of the age are included to put the information in full context.
