While not a travel guide in the traditional sense, this book is a great introduction to western Tuscany that travelers looking for a more authentic Italy will enjoy. It's an insightful and interesting read for any Italophile.
This engaging work sheds light on the life of one of Britain's greatest travel writers, with particular detail on his time in Greece, his war escapades, and his struggles with writing. Recommended for lovers of armchair travel and those who enjoyed Sir Fermor's own writings. [See Prepub Alert, 5/20/13.]
Her depictions of people and community are insightful, and her writing is, at times, touching and deeply personal. Since the book lacks a cohesive narrative structure, readers are free to wander through it as they might the streets of the Italian cities that are described within. Best suited for lovers of Italian culture and readers who enjoy serious, contemplative memoirs.
Like a river itself, winding its way through history and biology, politics and preservation, this book will appeal to both nature lovers and those living in and near the Cape Fear watershed.
This guidebook's strength is the wealth and variety of information about the city and its history. Not well designed for use en route, it is recommended for trip planning and research. Though it's somewhat dated, riders may prefer the clarity and brevity of Phil Harrington's Short Bike Rides in and Around New York City.
This book is for anyone who loves the offbeat mixed with scandalous history. Though not for the prudish, it is a fun romp through some lesser-known history.
