Bodies in the Tiber is the third book in the best-selling Sertorius Scrolls historical fiction series.

Download or read book The Other Side of the Tiber written by Wallis Wilde-Menozzi and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2013-04-23 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Other Side of the Tiber illuminates Italy in an entirely new way, treating the peninsula as a series of distinct places, subjects, histories, and geographies loosely bound together by shared priorities and limits. A subtle and solid image of Italy emerges as does a multi-faceted portrait of the author. Earthquakes and volcanoes; a hundred-year-old man; Siena as a walled city; Keats in Rome; the refugee camp of Manduria; the Slow Food movement realism in Caravaggio; the concept of good and evil; Mary the Madonna as a subject--from these varied angles, Wilde-Menozzi traces a society skeptical about competition and tolerant of contradiction, and suggests the benefits of its long view of time and belief in beauty.

Download or read book The Tiber Bridge written by Sherrie Seibert Goff and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2018-03-16 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Tiber Bridge tells the story of Ancus Marcius, Romes fourth king, a man of power and ability haunted by the ghosts of his past, and of Vel Prasanai, a cast-out Etruscan who becomes his bridge builder. Conflict between gods and mortals intensifies over the sacrilege of spanning the Tiber in this spellbinding tale of war, political rivalry, love, and ambition set in the fabled years of early Rome. The many accomplishments of legendary King Ancus remain tarnished and unrewarding, as he faces endless war, endures the enmity of his predecessors son, is thwarted by Romes pontifex, and suffers the cruel suspicions of his wife. Engineers, priests, vestal virgins, generals, queens, and a family of shepherds all play a part in this sweeping tale of courage and endurance in the shadow of the first bridge built in Rome.
