The best part of the book is the way Wiseman describes the eruption of MOUNT VESUVIUS..She did her research and in detailed description tells us the stages of the volcanic eruption. In short, she describes how Pliny has died, the rush to get to Naples by land, the boats that are being bombarded by ash, pumice, and the covering of the cities. An inspirational book as it goes on to explain how the followers of Jesus Christ met for worship, baptism amidst the debauchery of Pompeii. A very short book-especially good for middle or high school.
