First sentence: Anyone confronted with a new book on Roman villas must ask whether anything new can be said, given that two Empire-wide studies exist, one by A.G. McKay of every kind of house and another by John Percival of the villa as a social and economic institution; and these are supplemented by innumerable regional surveys.
