Content:
As a civil engineer, Horst Barow is fascinated by the vestiges of the Roman Empire, not the least of them being roads and bridges. In many cases they still carry modern traffic after 2000 years. Barow systematically collected material on Roman roads and bridges and surveyed bridges on the spot. His untimely death in 2010 left his wife with a great work in progress and it is thanks to the publisher that this book has been realized. Translated from the German by Friedrich Ragette
