Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Great Cities of the World: In Their Glory and in Their Desolation, Embracing Cities of Europe, Asia, Africa and America; With a History of Important Events of Their Time
The idea of this work was suggested by Buckley's Great Cities of the Ancient World, and to his pages I am indebted for a considerable portion of what relates to ancient cities.
