  Je suis déçu. Je pensais à un ouvrage sérieux, mais les à priori de lauteur sur lhistoire romaine et la cruauté de Néron, mont dissuadé daller plus loin que les premières pages. Un historien sérieux ne sappuie pas que sur Tacite pour juger cet empereur.

  I recommend reading this book after the brilliant book by John Evangelist Walsh The Bones of St. Peter. Read together they really draw a compelling picture of the research and archaeology that made discovery of the bones of the apostle possible. The account written by Walsh is fascinating and describes the dig, its findings and tests performed for authentication in minute detail. The book by John ONeil is written some twenty years later and pics up where the first book stops, especially the lamentable persecution and ridiculing of the brilliant Margherita Guarducci, who is a real hero of the story. She has my huge respect. The FIshermans Tomb is very good if you want to learn about characters and their relationships, The Bones of St.Peter is better and accurate representation of the actual work that led to probably the biggest archaeological discovery of the 20th century. Not to be missed.

  A fascinating story about a Texas benefactor, an archeologist and St Peter at a critical time in history

  Interesting, well written if somewhat repetitive in places. For the curious, a good read!
