Umbria by Ian Campbell Ross
Often known as 'the Green Heart of Italy', Umbria is a region of glorious landscapes, Roman remains, medieval cathedrals, and Orvieto wines. This cultural history makes the perfect traveller's companion.
"Splendidly accessible.. To anyone wanting to know more about Umbria it can be unreservedly recommended." - Barry Unsworth, The Daily Telegraph "Mr. Ross loves these cities and their masterpieces... To read his luminous descriptions... is to want to book your ticket to Assisi immediately." - The Economist
