Etruscan Roman Remains - Bok av Professor Charles Godfrey Leland - Häftad

Etruscan Roman Remains - Bok av Professor Charles Godfrey Leland - Häftad

The Etruscans are one of history's great mysteries -- a sophisticated society that flourished at the heart of the Classical world and then vanished, leaving relatively few archaeological remains and few records of their culture.

The Spirit of Laws, first published in 1750, is a detailed treatise on the structures and theory of government by French political philosopher Baron de Montesquieu.
