An Inspired Anthology and Travel Resource.
Immerse Yourself in the Culture, Food and History of Tuscany and Umbria.
Unlike any other travel guide, this book immerses you in a place, culture, and people other than your own, while offering a wealth of the useful information every traveller needs.
The literary first part of the book is filled with previously published essays and articles written by esteemed writers and journalists. The words of Frances Mayes, William Weaver, and Jason Epstein give us a taste of life in the countrysides of Tuscany and Umbria. The essays are divided into sections such as Current Events; Personalities; History; Museums; Gardens; and Food and Drink.
The second part of the guide is a handy reference section full of useful information on everything from understanding a menu and converting currency to finding local campgrounds and bike rentals. A particularly wonderful feature of the guide is the selective bibliography that will keep you happily reading about where you've been (or would still love to go) for ages!
