We are satisfied with the knowledge, and that is why we extend it to all our colleagues, that one of us, Manuel Roldán, author of a good number of books, pretends that they are not the only ones who live here, in Tarragona, a city full of overflowing history and culture, especially Roman, but also those who for one reason or another can not do so, know those characters or motifs represented in the urban sculptures that adorn the squares and streets, and of course those who were its authors.
And being original, it conveys to us differently to how those who write similar books do. So he colloquially shows the reader each sculpture of the twenty-seven in total, by a couple of different people, in this case one for each nation that make up the European Union, coincidentally coinciding with the number of sculptures located in the city.
It also strikes us that in one chapter of the book, Roman mythological gods, not Greek, hold a talk-colloquium celebrating the success of the proposal to establish the "Route of the sculptures of Tarragona" . And being more ambitious, already thinking about the 25th anniversary of the declaration of Tarragona, as a "World Heritage Site" and made by UNESCO on November 30, 2000
So we recommend you go to the publisher's website and download the book in PDF format, or purchase it on paper.

You can also take a look at the blog he has created, to see what the itinerary of this route is like and the sculptures that make it up.
