Escape from Pompeii: Tracing Survivors from the 79 CE Eruption of Vesuvius
Escape from Pompeii: Tracing Survivors from the 79 CE Eruption of Vesuvius
Dr. Steven Tuck, Professor of History and Classics in the Department of History at Miami University, will change the story of Pompeii from one of death and destruction to one of survival and hope. Through his research, he has traced those Romans who escaped the eruption of Vesuvius and discovered how and where they rebuilt lives, families, and businesses, while carrying with them reminders of their former lives.
