Soft cover. Condition: Fine. Caselli, Giovanni (illustrator). As new condition color photographic softcover wraps. Includes Preface; Museums of Etruria; and Index of Places. Profusely illustrated with color photographs, diagrams, maps, and drawings. "Following a circular geographic route, from Veii northwards to Fiesole and Pisa, and then south again to Tarquinia and Caere, this book attempts to illustrate the history of each area. Our sources are mostly archaeological finds, rather than written documents. Our historical survey goes beyond the Etruscan and Roman periods to the early Middle Ages, but it is not our intention to prove the existence of a continuity that too many facts could easily refute. We intend merely to illustrate the essential elements of an exemplary case of close interaction between man and the land he lives on." - Salvatore Settis, from the Preface.
