Reviews
"Mayes has arranged her memoir geographically from north to south, rather than chronologically, to allow readers to peruse the sections randomly, perhaps using the book as a companion guide to their own trip. Her descriptions are painterly and alluring, and she includes recipes for memorable dishes--grilled prawns with fennel and olives, sea bream poached in special seasoned broth, lemon ricotta tart, gnocchi with wild hare, and crispy octopus--that are likely to whet the prospective traveler's appetite. A charming homage to upscale travel through Italy."-- Kirkus Reviews, "Here, we are off the beaten track, soaking in the distinctive sunlight, traditional cuisines, architecture, and geographical features of each area...providing delightful trattoria recipes, poetry and anecdotes. Readers will definitely eat well by staying by her whimsical and conversational side."-- Library Journal (starred), "Frances Mayes is a bon vivant who seems to have found a limitless muse in the country of Italy. Though we can't hop a plane to Europe at the moment, we can find inspiration for future trips in her gorgeous new book ... this dazzling digest...the next best thing to an Italian vacation." -Forbes.com "Armchair-wanderlusting at its finest: Let the Georgia-born Frances Mayes, author of Under the Tuscan Sun , be your guide to Italy. With co-author Ondine Cohane, a travel writer who lives in Southern Tuscany, this book is a primer on every hidden pocket and charming café you dream of sitting in right about now." - Garden & Gun "What a gorgeous book! I didn't have plans to necessarily visit Italy one day, but I do now! Wow!... When the world recovers, a trip to Italy must be in the works! " -Instagram: @bookswithBethany "Beautiful book. I wish I was there right now." -Instagram: @twistsandtropes "Always Italy allows you to live, breathe, and eat Italy...a fresh and exhilarating take on Italy that's worth reading. -Tabi Thoughts "Especially given recent times, I cherished my time spent with this beautiful book. As with any National Geographic book, the book is filled with stunning pictures, and the content sparkles just as much. If you are planning to travel to Italy, or if you dream of traveling there, this book is your quintessential traveling companion." -Jennifer - Tar Heel Reader Featured in Upscale Magazine Gift Guide "A must for any Italy visit!" -Instagram: @colbywilkens " Always Italy is such a treat! Gorgeous photos as only a @natgeo book can do, travel tips and the best of the regions this book has given me so many ideas of how I would travel to Italy differently this time around. Dreams!" -Instagram: somekindofalibrary "With everyone stuck at home right now it's fun to make future plans to travel maybe this summer. Books like this one can brighten your spirits And teach you a lot at the same time. Live La Dolce Vita!" -Instagram: @wellreadtraveler "Talk about the perfect book to armchair travel to Italy with... It is spectacular! Gorgeous photographs that will have you imagining yourself wandering the streets of Italy, living 'la dolce vita'." -A Bookish Way of Life "There are more than 400 pages packed with practical information about the best of Italy but what I loved most was the obvious passion that these two women have for Italy. It's impossible to read this book and not want to follow in their footsteps and visit ALL of Italy!" -Gone With the Family "You get the sense that Mayes loves each region as much as her beloved Tuscany! Not a hard feat, given the magnificence that is Italy." -The Unexplorer "One of the things I love the most about Mayes is her love of food. While "Under the Tuscan Sun" was scrumptious in its descriptions, the recipes printed at the end were reason enough to fall in love with this book...I am going to be honest-I really miss traveling...Along with stunning images and mouth-watering descriptions, I could almost pretend as though I was on holiday for a while." -The Wayfaring Voyager "I found this book to be interesting and enlightening. One can certainly tell that Ms. Mayes is passionate about Italy and I feel that every tourist will benefit from having this book when deciding on a vacation." -- Man of La Book blog, "Mayes has arranged her memoir geographically from north to south, rather than chronologically, to allow readers to peruse the sections randomly, perhaps using the book as a companion guide to their own trip. Her descriptions are painterly and alluring, and she includes recipes for memorable dishes-grilled prawns with fennel and olives, sea bream poached in special seasoned broth, lemon ricotta tart, gnocchi with wild hare, and crispy octopus-that are likely to whet the prospective traveler's appetite. A charming homage to upscale travel through Italy."-- Kirkus Reviews, "A sparkling and irresistible view of Italy... Mayes has a wonderful eye for detail as she lyrically describes her surroundings... Readers will want to take their time, savoring this poetic travelogue like a smooth wine."-- Publishers Weekly (starred)

AVOID THIS SELLER! I knowingly bought sweater with a few holes as pictured in listing. Arrived with 21 holes - that many not at all depicted. Sent back and now delayed in getting my refund. Very unhappy with terrible listing and follow up communications.
