Author Description

This spectacular photographic tour offers an opportunity that few visitors to Italy ever have: the chance to see this beautiful land as a sweeping whole, from the cool northern Alps to the sunny southern islands, from the dappled inland forests to the Mediterranean seacoasts. As you soar through this collection of aerial photographs, you will gain new insights into the history and culture of Italy, the way the past fits in with the present, the country's natural wonders, and the Italian people themselves...insights that no earthbound traveller could ever have. The World From The Air series gives a new perspective to traditional travel literature, with big, full- and double- page, full colour photographs showing views hardly even seen by tourists: a spectacular way to explore any country!
