Part of the Cambridge Library Collection - European History series
Paperback / softback
Description
John Cam Hobhouse's 1859 publication provides a detailed account of his travels around Italy between 1816 and 1854.
The two volumes contain informative descriptions of the places, people and politics of nineteenth-century Italy, and the reader will gain fascinating insights into the close relationship between Hobhouse and Lord Byron.
Providing a mix of entertaining anecdotes and historical information, the volumes explore 'a country now made accessible by a few hours journey and familiar to us by every mode of illustration', acquainting the Victorian traveller (and now the modern reader) with the Italy 'of times long past'.
Volume 2 focuses mainly on the churches, monuments, temples and ruins of Ancient Rome.
