Excerpt from Plain Towns of Italy: The Cities of Old VenetiaThe issuance of this volume, designed as a companion book to the hill-towns of Italy, marks the second step in the execution of a project which was conceived at the time of the latter's production, and which was confirmed in my mind by the kind reception accorded the H ill-towns by the public. Eight years, it is true, have since passed, but it was not until four years ago, on laying aside all other business and coming to Italy to dwell, that I was able at last to devote myself to the preparation of this work, a work exceedingly more laborious than the former, and requiring far more time for its due completion, both from the nature of the ground it covers and from the wider scope which I have endeavored to give it, but, like the former, a work of love.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
