Description

The morning of August 24, AD 79, looked like every other within the Roman city of Pompeii. So nobody used to be prepared when the nearby volcano Mount Vesuvius erupted, spouting ash that buried town and its inhabitants. The disaster left thousands dead, and Pompeii used to be not more than a memory for just about 1,700 years. In 1748, explorers rediscovered the port city with intact buildings and beautiful mosaics. This simple-to-read account is gripping and includes photos of the ruins.
