The Resurrection of Rome

G. K. Chesterton

Chesterton's book on his visit to Rome in 1929-30, after the Lateran Treaty: the outline of a city, the story of the statues, the pillar of the Lateran, the return of the gods, the return of the Romans and the Holy Island. A traveller's tale and a meditation on the permanence of Rome and the Church.
