In For the Love of Rome, John Ferris conveys his excitement in
discovering the city of Rome through language that moves those
unfamiliar with the enchanted city, as well as those who have often
been there. The book is not about wars, persecutions, internal
struggles for power within Roman and Vatican rule, nor cultural
development. As Ferris said, "The book is about our experiences in
mid-1960s and -1970s] Rome, what drew my wife and me there, and
what we learned by seeing and reading." The style is witty,
amusing, and unfailingly interesting as he relates historical
anecdotes and reveals Rome's impact on various major figures,
including Charles Dickens, James Joyce, and many more.
