## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good overview
*by L***N on April 2, 2025*

A breathless race through history. Superficial but provides a good framework for understanding the history of this important part of the world.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good book about the history of Italy!
*by K***R on January 26, 2021*

Interesting read I wish there was a little more history of the last century of Italy. But it was a good interesting book. Didn't realize that Italy was not really a republic until 1946. Being Italian that was the year I was born.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Two Volumes in One
*by M***S on December 2, 2020*

I think of the history of Italy as a multitude of different communities that coalesced like the individual panes of stained glass that fit in a window.Matt Clayton attempts to approach the history of Italy in such a fashion, recognizing the impact of Rome as an empire and piecing the fragments of the Italian nation to understand the different people, cultures and religions.Matt starts with the Bronze Age and leads us through the early settlements, then the Iron Age into the influence of the Roman Empire, then the impact of the Barbarian period following the Roman Empire and the emergence of the Papal States. Matt spends some time discussing Italy's evolution during the Renaissance which subsequently saw its unification under Napoleon.Matt ends the concise history at the period following World War II. A generous bibliography is provided for further research.The history of Rome is a dense and long story starting with people that settled around the hills overlooking the Tiber River and progressed quickly through the years to rule half the known world. Europe, the Near East and North Africa was its footprint and the city became the Holy City during the Middle Ages.The interest in Rome is evident by the volume of titles that cover various aspects of the history, architecture, art, literature, religion, laws and language.Matt Clayton succeeds in providing the reader a quick history of its founding and its evolution through the ages. He leadxs us through the succession of Roman leaders, their impact on the Roman culture and the expansion of the empire. He ends with a light touch upon the 1950s and 1950s and provides a bibliography for further interests.
