The Impact of Rome.
 
All roads lead to Rome but one Roman Road leads to Innerpeffray.  The new display is a small sample of all the books in the Library about Rome, the culture of the Caesars, and their commerce  which cornered the trade of the  known world of the age of sail and oar.
Bishop Robert Hay Drummond and David, Lord Madertiewould have been fluent in Latin, the language of education and familiar with Greek, the language of the New testament. These books on Rome show its religion, its history and its literature.
The booklets at the back show scenes from the Roman Frontier-79 AD; at the huge fort at Ardoch, by Braco, and also just across the River Earn from the Library, and the marks of Strageath Fort.
