Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Little Journeys to the Homes of English Authors, Vol. 8: Lord Byron
Fifty-seven generations have come gone since Caesar trod the Roman Forum. The pillars against which he often leaned still stand, the thresh olds over which he passed are there, the pavements ring beneath your tread as they once rang - beneath his. Three generations and more have come and gone since Napoleon trod the streets of Toulon contemplating suicide.
