Did you know that Michelangelo based the stunning Mary of his beautiful Pieta on his mother or that Raphael was engaged but he kept a mistress who was a baker's daughter from Trastavere? This book is full of such interesting information. It is a great companion for your travels in Italy and a delight to read!

As well as including the famous sights and churches, Susan Van Allen also suggests cafes and restaurants and out-of-town trips. She also tells you how to get to them. She has short lists of books on particular subjects too. I will certainly read some of them!

I received this book free from Edelweiss in exchange for an honest review.
