Summary:

Italian cities have been points of reference for much of architect Peter Wilson's professional life, and the many reasons for visiting the country have long presented themselves as not just the easy list - holidays, food, architecture and culture. The grand tour is the most obvious of tropes for framing these things, but it can also serve as a useful vehicle for a more ingrained understanding into Italy's wider architectural habitat and cultural mythology. This book appears in the form of a latter-day Baedeker.
