This book presents a picture of pre-Roman Italy as complete and
as faithful as modern discovery could make it, when it was
originally published in 1937. The evidence of archaeology is
combined with the testimony of historical tradition and non-Latin
dialects in a balanced account of elements no less diverse than
those of modern Europe. This description of Italy in the middle of
the last millennium B.C. illuminates the success of Rome in
achieving a united Italy, where others had failed an achievement
which paved the way for the course over of events over centuries.
Originally published 1937."
