"Has any city in the world been as fortunate in its admirers as Venice? From Shakespeare to Browning to James, the city has inspired writers who have been able to capture its allure and occasional absurdity. Judith Martin, self-proclaimed Venetophile [and Miss Manners columnist], acquits herself beautifully in this august company, writing with wit and a great eye. Rich with humor, anecdote, and useful information, it is an indispensable book. Don't dare go to Venice without it, and if you can't go to Venice, read it anyway; it's the next best thing to being there."—Geraldine Brooks
