Ci sarebbe stata l'Europa - questa che noi oggi conosciamo - senza le strade dei romani? Probabilmente no. Anzi, sicuramente no. Lungo le strade volute da consoli e generali, tracciate da imperatori e custodite da procuratori, sono passate le legioni romane, ma con le legioni è passata la lingua, è passato il diritto, sono transitate forme d'arte, si sono diffusi modelli di vita civile, costumi della civiltà urbana. Questo volume parla, con passione e competenza, delle strade consolari italiane, di quelle strade che hanno reso possibile la prima grande globalizzazione voluta dai romani.

This fully illustrated volume describes the history, culture, language, religion and art of the Indian tribes who have inhabited the northwest coast of the United States since 5000 BC, such as the Tlingit, Tsimshian, Haida, Nootka and Coast Salish tribes. It details the way of life which these native Americans have developed over the course of time, and their reaction to the intense cultural shocks they have suffered since the incursion of settlers.
