I am sensible that the present work can only be considered as a faint representation of a great and import image; but if a few of the principal features are delineated, it may assist the enquiries of the traveller, and, in some measure, gratify the curiosity of those who are denied the satisfaction of visiting the places dignified by history.

Few persons peruse the Roman history, without forming a wish that it were possible to become more intimately acquainted with the great characters described in it; and this thought seems particularly to strike those who wander amidst the ruins of ancient Rome.
To bring history to life, is the chief intention of this publication. The reigns of Augustus and Tiberius are generally allowed to include the most interesting period for the politician, the moralist, the man of learning, and the artist.
