Secrets the Travel Guides Won't Tell You A veteran of dozens of trips to Rome, the author delivers a fascinating insider's look at the Mother City of us all. Korn reveals how tourists, while rushing through the must see sights listed in conventional guides, are missing treasures steeped in just as much history yet without the crowds and hassles. A delightful read, Hidden Rome-- - looks at Christian Rome, pagan Rome, architectural Rome, and the Roman's Rome. - details many one-day trips like Assisi, Palestrina, and Frascati. - includes such oddities as the secret society of talking statues, an ancient lie detector, the history of Roman graffiti, and more. - explains not so much what to see but how to see. - is perfect for armchair travelers, vacation planners, students going abroad, and those reminiscing about past trips. +
