Description
Venice emerged on mudflats at the edge of the habitable world.
Protected in a tidal estuary from invaders and Byzantine overlords, the fishermen and traders who settled there crafted a way of life unique in the Roman Empire.
McGregor recreates this world, with its waterways rather than roads and its livelihood harvested from the sea.
