The real thing,
By A Customer
This review is from: Parma: A Complete Guide to Giuseppe Verdi's Homeland and to the Region's Towns, Castles, Art, and Cuisine (Heritage Guides) (Paperback)
This volume is the English translation of the guide put out by the Touring Club Italiano, so it's designed for Italians who want to explore the historic city of Parma and its province. If that's your destination and you really want to know where to go, then this is the book for you. You'll find everything you need to know about Parma itself as well as the castles, churches and ducal palaces out in the province. Parma is off the beaten tourist track but full of history, art, music, and, of course, great food, and this guides provides the background and details you need to get the most out of your trip. It's compact and contains many maps and itineraries, especially valuable if you are touring by car.
