This book offers a comprehensive guide book in English devoted to
the Roman remains of southern France. The book embraces Provence,
the Riviera and Languedoc-Roussillon from the Alps to the
Pyrennees. It ranges from sites such as the extensive Roman remains
at Vienne in the Rhone valley, the great aqueduct of Pont du Gard,
the beautiful ruined temple of Vernegues, to the striking museum
collections of Arles and Avignon. It provides an extensive
description of the major and many of the less well-known sites.
Greek and the local Gallic contributions to Roman civilization are
given proper attention. The book is organized in a straightforward
, alphabetical reference format; the text not only helps the
visitor identify important or distinctive remains, but also
provides an evocative and atmospheric picture of many of the
places; all sites are set in a historical and cultural context,
while regional and local maps make finding sites easy (and most of
these have plans); photographs and illustrations should help the
visitor identify material; interesting museum exhibits are pointed
out.
