The Eternal City, heart of Christendom, home of the Pope, capital of the Church State, of the Kingdom then the Republic of Italy. The reader is taken back through many episodes of Rome's history over the last nine centuries, some well known others less so. These are the framework for the various events involving distinguished members of the Colonna family. A very readable historical compendium, an easy reference, with no academic aspirations but carefully researched, as its rich bibliography confirms.
