Italy - Paperback

by Jennifer Lombardo (Author)

Italy has a deep, rich culture and history. The country has had its ups and downs; over the years, it has gone from one of the world's largest empires to a fascist dictatorship and finally to the democracy it is today. It has also contributed much to world cuisine, art, and politics. In the present day, multiple regions make up this diverse country, from the sun-drenched Amalfi coast to the rolling hills of Tuscany. Through informative fact boxes and large, full-color photographs, readers gain a deeper appreciation for Italy's enduring beauty and influence on the world.
