П. Акройд, совершая путешествие во времени, рассматривает развитие Венеции от доисторических поселений, существовавших на ее месте, эпохи Римской и Византийской империй, в средние века и до настоящего времени. Он описывает развитие искусства и архитектурные памятники, различные традиции, события и личности. Для тех, кто посетил или еще надеется посетить "Жемчужина Адриатики", эта работа станет настоящим сокровищем.
Even during the dominance of the Roman Empire, Venice and Venetians were regarded as distinct by their neighbors. They spoke Latin, and later Italian, in an unusual dialect. Their geographic position as an island in a lagoon contributed to their fierce spirit of independence, but it also positioned them to control trade routes to and from the East. Ackroyd, the novelist, biographer, and writer of tributes to great urban centers (London), has captured the rich tradition, beauty, and vibrancy of this magnificent city in a survey that combines political and artistic history with aspects of a travelogue.
