Wonders of Italy

This volume combines the natural splendours of the "Bel Paese" (the beautiful country) with man-made treasures of art, architecture and design in a tour of Italy's boot-shaped peninsula and associated islands. The book explores the incredible of Italian landscapes: from Tuscany and the Po Valley to the wild beauty of the south with its volcanoes; from the majesty of the highest Alpine mountains to the beauty of the coastline; from the tiny villages of Umbria to the fashion and culture of Milan and Rome; and from the ancient routes trodden by the Romans to the glories of the Renaissance.
