When the novelist Henry James first visited Italy, he exclaimed 'At last - for the first time - I live': anyone who follows him there will understand why. Extending dramatically from the mainland of southern Europe, Italy is host to an extraordinary wealth of history and contemporary life. Here the glories of ancient Rome and the Renaissance co exist with symbols of modern life: superb statues adorn everyday streets and supermarkets stand alongside breathtaking cathedrals. Life in the streets is a constant theatre, where the vivacious Italians enjoy a climate designed for happiness. Including everything from where to enjoy one of the world's great cuisines to hiking in the Dolomites, this is the complete guide to Italy and the Italians. Discover Italy with Berlitz.
