Description:

The first Blue Guide to cover the whole of Italy, in a distilled format concentrating on the art history and architecture of the key sites. Full-colour, detailed maps and diagrams as well as Blue Guide Recommended dining and accommodation suggestions.

Synopsis:

Blue Guides: Complete Cultural Guides -- In this concise guide the Blue Guides' Italy authors and editorial team provide a distillation of the best of Italy in one handy volume: what to see; what it means; who painted, sculpted or built it for whom and why; what to eat and where; where to stay; how to get around. Illustrations to inform rather than to decorate: maps, diagrams, floor plans, architectural details and photographs -- "Often plagiarised by other guide writers, Blue Guides have always been a gold standard for accuracy and depth" Daily Telegraph. "Guide books in the grand tradition of thoroughness and objectivity" Georgia Review.
