Aided by an extensive collection of pictures carefully selected from the Alinari archives, these guides capture the essence of each of these beguiling and unique cities, sketching their evolution over the last century. This book, dedicated to Florence, provides a unique insight into this UNESCO world heritage site, widely regarded as one of the most beautiful cities in the world. A perfect gift for history aficionados or those keen to visit Italy, the Homage titles allow readers to 'Transform themselves unexpectedly into living witnesses of the cities that were'.
