Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Conquest of Rome
But the solitary man was not asleep. He was stretched out at full length on the seat, an arm under his neck, and one hand in his hair the other hand was lost in the bosom of his coat. His eyes were closed, but his face bore not the soft expression of repose, not the deep peace of human lineaments in sleep. Instead, the efi'ort of thought was to be read in those contracted features.
