A Year in Ancient Rome
Explore Rome's eight centuries through 366 daily entries, each centered on a different coin from the Republic and Empire.
Leo Kowalski is a lifelong enthusiast of coins and ancient history, drawn above all to the moment when a worn piece of metal turns into a story: a face, a slogan, a date, a name someone tried to erase. Leo lives in the United States and reads the ancient writers for pleasure. If you enjoyed this year in Rome, a short review on Amazon is the best way to help other readers find the book.
