THE THRIFTY GUIDE TO ANCIENT ROME
David Sossella Jonathan W. Stokes
Like a middle-grade Magic School Bus, the Thrifty Time Traveler's Guide takes readers on funny and informative trips to the greatest moments in history!
The Thrifty Time Traveler's Guide to Ancient Romeis a snappy, informative travel guide that comes in the package with your time machine purchase in the year 2163. It contains information vital to the sensible time traveler:
*Where can I find a decent hotel room in ancient Rome for under five sesterces a day? Is horse parking included?
*What do I do if I'm attacked by barbarians?
*What are my legal options if I'm fed to the lions at the Colosseum?
Designed as a parody of Fodor's, complete with humorous maps; reviews of places to stay and top attractions (Julius Caesar's assassination is a must-see!); and tips on who to have lunch with (Hannibal, assuming he doesn't kill you).If you had a time travel machine and could take a vacation anywhere in history, this is the only guidebook you would need.
