Book Description
Americans are discovering a place Europeans have known for centuries -- lovely Emilia Romagna, home of spaghetti bolognese, Pavarotti, parma ham, Lambrusco, lasagne, Marconi, balsamic vinegar . . . in a guide that might well have been entitled Food, Opera & Art, Cadogan's best-selling authors unearth treasures to compare with those of Tuscany and Lombardy, including Rimini, Italy's vast, madcap, international resort; and, nestling in the region's corner, San Marino, the world's smallest and oldest republic. This guide covers a region people know better than they think.
