Young armchair travelers will glide through the canals of Venice, feel the heart-stopping excitement of Siena's annual Palio horse race, and gaze in awe at the ancient treasures of Pompeii. A lively text supplements the photographs, providing fascinating insight into the artistic, architectural, natural, and human legacies that make Italy so compelling.
