A new and 50% enlarged, entertaining, but fundamentally serious
selection of the most rewarding places to visit the most visited and
beloved country in the world. Places described have gone from 101 to 150
in this edition. Sicily, Calabria and Apulia are the subjects of greater
focus. Towns (additions include Bergamo, Pesaro, Cremona and Todi),
villages, museums and individual monuments are discussed, characterised
and described. A guide book in its own right, but above all a
thoughtful, opinionated and supremely well-informed guide, supplement
and corrective to conventional guides. Note this is not a guide to
hotels, restaurants and other amenities.
