"Patty has updated the way we think about traveling. It's interesting she realized that we travel differently when we're over 50 than we did when we were in our 20's. I know I do! I own a lot of travel books, but Patty's are uniquely different. Polished, professional and thorough, we sure could have used these when were hosting forums in Italy!"

I have a PhD in Renaissance literature and have taught about the Renaissance for years at the college level. I found Patty Civalleri's Florence travel guide beautiful, informative, and historically accurate, filled with the creative excitement and inspiration of the Renaissance. Highly recommended!
Venice Keys to the City is the second tour guide I have read by Patty Civalleri. I give her guides my highest recommendation. Patty's books focus on things that don't change--what are the sites you need to see, why you need to see them, and some fantastic stories associated with them. Highly recommended on all accounts!
I have used many travel guides - standards like Rick Steves or the DK Eyewitness guides. I have been in Rome previously. This is by far the best guide I have ever purchased. The history and lists of rulers are concise. I have also purchased the guides to Florence and Venice which are equally excellent. The photographs are outstanding.
