Bibliography for Pompeii and Related Topics
in Roman Art, Architecture and Culture

compiled by J. C. Fant, who does not guarantee it


This bibliography is focused on the Vesuvian cities but includes broader topics for comparative study and for research into Roman art, architecture and urban life. If a call number is given, the book can be found in the University of Akron's Bierce Library; I haven't tried to check every work listed.
