Excerpt from Little Cities of Italy Celt from Oxford and the Hill of Saint Genevieve, and a very plain person, of mixed British extraction, found themselves one pleasant day on the highway of Monsieur Maurel's "artistic and sociological journey in Italy." Here in still vigorous Tuscany, and over there in languid Venezia, thanks to his Little Cities of Italy, we began to observe with more sympathy and intelligence than ever before the life, the beauty, the mysticism of this enchanting country, and, above all, her centuries-long struggle for self-government, the love of which we, too, cherish before all other loves as the foundation and inspiration of every form of greatness. In Florence, we have counted the jewels in the girdle of Venus, and, in Venice, we have enumerated the precious stones of Aphrodite. We have stood in the "great, venerable hall" of San Gimignano, where Dante "took the word." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

"After a lifetime of living and eating in Rome, Elizabeth Minchilli is an expert on the city's cuisine. While she's proud to share everything she knows about Rome, she now wants to show her devoted readers that the rest of Italy is a culinary treasure trove just waiting to be explored. Far from being a monolithic gastronomic culture, each region of Italy offers its own specialties. While fava beans mean one thing in Rome, they mean an entirely different thing in Puglia. Risotto in a Roman trattoria? Don't even consider it. Visit Venice and not eat cichetti? Unthinkable. Eating My Way Through Italy, celebrates the differences in the world's favorite cuisine"--Provided by publisher.
