Discover Italy’s Hidden Gems: 101 Enchanting Small Towns.

Fully revised and updated, this tourist friendly–sized volume promises 101 enchanting reasons to visit Italy over and over.

Who hasn’t dreamed of being whisked away to a storybook Italian town buried deep in the countryside?

The 101 towns featured represent the twenty diverse regions of Italy and their varied landscapes, architecture, and local specialties. Practical sidebars introduce the reader to traditional artisans as well as the best place to buy Parmigiano Reggiano or the greatest terrace to take in a Tuscan sunset. Art and architecture are also amply covered, from the history of L’Aquila’s ninety-nine fountains to the most elaborate of baroque churches.

It is amazing how much Italy has to offer beyond the well-trod paths of Venice, Florence, and Rome: from Asolo to Vicenza. This is a map to the heart and soul of the Italian countryside, complete with a full appendix of restaurants, hotels, and shops to aid even the most seasoned travelers in enjoying Italy more than ever.

Julian Y. ★★★★★

The photos alone make me want to book a flight, but the revised town-by-town breakdowns with practical tips are what sold me. It’s compact enough to toss in a carry-on, and I’ve already dog-eared a dozen pages for next spring.

Isabella K. ★★★★★

Finally, a guide that actually fits in my daypack. The revised edition covers towns I've never seen in other travel books, and the small size makes it perfect for flipping through on the train between stops. I've already planned two trips just from browsing it.

Benjamin ★★★★☆

The revised edition is a godsend for planning backroads trips—the compact layout makes it easy to flip through while deciding between towns. I do wish the photos were bigger, but the descriptions alone have already added three stops to my itinerary that I’d never heard of before.
