Central Italy |
Note: This unique collection of previously published articles about everything Tuscan will capture the hearts and imagination of anyone going to Italy whether for the first time or the one-hundredth. Written by the finest writers and journalists around, including William Weaver, Faith Heller Willinger, Patricia Wells, Manuela Hoelterhoff, Jan Morris, and Jason Epstein, and culled from publications such as Gourmet, The New York Times, Conde Nast Traveler, and Gambero Ross, Italy and all its many facets are uncovered and explored. Divided into categories such as Current Events; Piazzas, Gardens and Monuments; Food and Drink; Umbria; Tuscany; Florence; each theme is complete with an extremely detailed annotated bibliography that will be as entertaining as the recommended books themselves. Besides being a provocative literary-minded anthology, Central Italy is also an invaluable resource. Containing a comprehensive practical information section, readers will find information on the day to day needs of a tourist (money changing, bank machines, how to understand a menu) as well as the more challenging needs of a traveler (renting an apartment, finding bicycle paths, renting camping equipment, etc.) The variety and depth of this unique collection provides a deep understanding of Italians and their history that is sure to make any trip to Italy richer and more rewarding. It offers much more than any typical guidebook on the shelves now, and best of all is perhaps as captivating to read after the trip as it is before. |
