Download or read book Guide to Italy and Sicily written by MacMillan And Company and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-25 with total page 616 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Guide to Italy and Sicily: With 19 Maps and 36 Plans Special pains have been taken in the preparation of clear and accurate Maps and Plans, the number of which, it is believed, will be found to bear a larger proportion to the amount of letterpress than in any similar publication. We believe that our plans of the Forum, the Palatine, and of Pompeii will be found to contain later information as to recent excavations than any yet published in England. Places belonging politically to Italy, but geographically to the Alps, like Courmayeur and Macugnaga, are not included in this volume; while places like Lugano, which belongs politically to Switzerland, but geographically to Italy, are included. This arrangement is adopted for the practical convenience of the traveller. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
