'Most of the yearly host of visitors,

and low, sloping easily back from the
water into the sunbaked and fertile
valley of the Po. As the lake narrows
toward the north. first the Alpine hills
and then the higher spurs of the Alps
fold in upon it. The upper reaches
are like a Norwegian ford. with pre-
