Summary:
This personal, and wonderfully well-informed, selection of the most rewarding towns, cities, villages, and individual monuments in
Italy
is the definitive guidebook for the discerning traveler. The author knows
Italy
intimately, has been studying and writing about Italian art all his life, and is the perfect companion for those who want to know about more than the obvious attractions. As well as comprehensively covering the finest sights in the major tourist centers of Rome, Florence, Venice, and elsewhere, Russell selects, discusses and describes dozens of less known, and often neglected, masterpieces of art and architecture that are still to be found the length and breadth of the Italian peninsula. In a book that will educate and astonish the frequent traveller as surely as it will guide and inform the first-time visitor, the author chooses and explores palaces and gardens, city squares and lonely churches, frescoes and altarpieces, great museums and tiny ruins that together provide a richly textured portrait of a country where the history and patterns of civilization lie more thickly than anywhere else on earth.
