Rome: Profile of a City, 312-1308
This is a wonderful book to read before visiting Rome. It's title is very apt: it's a history through topography, through art, through tangible places and things. It tells the story of medieval Rome through it's buildings, which is a really interesting and memorable way to do it. I think Krautheimer in general is a better art historian than historian - some of his non-art sections are a bit generalized - but that's okay. I really like that he weaves both together, and shows how the political, economic, or social history of the city became reflected in its buildings.
