Itineraries take the reader to Fascist and occupied Rome of World War II, the nearby Alban Hills, and the Eternal City's lesser-known green spaces. Innovative chapters feature cultural and artistic Rome, including art galleries, jazz clubs, film locations, and rooftop bars--even places that offer a sumptuous (and free) \"vernissage\" of wine and hors d'oeuvres. With Bill and Dianne as guides-their voices part of the experience-the curious traveler will discover a housing project built under Mussolini; ascend a little-known holy Roman road on the city's outskirts; spend an evening in the out-of-the-way, artsy neighborhood of Pigneto; enjoy a trattoria where only Italians eat; and, among the book's many informative, creative \"sidebars,\" find in one the troubling story of Rome's Jewish community, and in another locate sites in \"Angels \u0026amp; Demons.\" 16 maps, 70 photos, an index, and detailed directions and instructions (including websites) make this \"new\" Rome easily accessible. For the frugally-minded, at times adventurous (at times armchair) traveler. Foreword by Rome Mayor Walter Veltroni.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dianne Bennett, William Graebner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Curious Traveler Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 248\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.69lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.52h x 5.53w x 0.54d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780615279985","brand":"Curious Traveler Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":40758345138291,"sku":"9.78062E+12","price":16.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_5afe3a90-3aaf-4af0-a8a7-684bcd70c842.jpg?v=1678889599","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/rome-the-second-time-15-itineraries-that-dont-go-to-the-coliseum-9780615279985","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
