Northeast Italy by Dana Facaros
Northeast Italy is Venetia, the lush terra firma acquired by the Venetians during the Renaissance so they could spend their twilight years amid art and delight. That delight is still tangible in the country villas and superb art cities of the Veneto; and Nature has added her own masterpieces: Venice's lagoon, fabled Lake Garda, and the rosy Dolomites. Beyond these, Cadogan's guide takes you deeper into this stunning region, uncovered frescoed castles, rare Carolingian churches, wine roads and strudel in the Alto Adige, while East of Venice, beaches follow the coast all the way to multicultural Trieste, where spies spied, Joyce jotted, and pasta shares the menu with goulash and blijeki.Dana Facaros has loved Greece since she was 14 years old, when she spent a summer on her father's native island of Ikaria. She has been traveling and writing about the country since 1977, when she created her first guidebook, to the Greek islands, after studying ancient Greek, mythology, and the classics during a brief stay at university. She then collaborated with Linda Theodorou on the Cadogan guide to all of Greece, which was published in 2003. She has since become a Greek citizen and contributes to the Sunday Times and Sunday Times Travel Magazine on a regular basis.
