Follow the directions when author Murray invites you to his home in Rome: they will take you past the Circus Maximus. What fun! Off the listener goes with reader Gardner--ah, the "Coloseum" (sic), the Trevi Fountain, the Villa Borghese. (Might I be excused to pop into a bookstore for I Tre Porcellini?) Subtitled "A Walk in Rome," this audiobook's audience includes those who know the city well, those who know Rome only through pictures, and people like me who were there for only a few days, which Murray says isn't nearly enough.
S--Recommended for senior high school students.
A--Recommended for advanced students and adults. This code will help librarians and teachers working in high schools where there are honors and advanced placement students. This also will help extend KLIATT's usefulness in public libraries.
