Negative Positive
Title: Entertaining and Historically Accurate
Review: If you're like me, you've been fascinated with Pompeii since you were a child. Who doesn't remember staring at pictures of the plaster casts of the people who met their demise during the eruption?This book brings back all of the facts and more to the forefront. It tells the story of Vesuvius and the surrounding historical characters from the viewpoint of the Aqueduct Engineer. Harris includes interesting tidbits concerning the appetitites (horrific food), depravities and other social aspects of Pompeii.If you've ever wondered what the ancient Roman's were really like; I'd definitely recommend this exciting, and quick read.
