Via Italia
Travel Tales
A Book in Progress
Our recent travel
excursions have been filled with interesting people, places, food, wine
and other memorable experiences in Italy and Spain. I have therefore decided to write a
book whose contents will be past and future travel tales, complete
with photographs, recipes, narrative adventures and personal impressions. My
collaborator is Adele Azzellino-Bucci, a grand signora from Napoli who
frequently accompanies Via Italia travelers to local markets and conducts
wonderful cooking demonstrations. In preparation, I have been rereading the great picaresque novels by Henry
Fielding and, of course, Chaucer's Canterbury Tales. Each chapter of the
book will be published on this web site and eventually between
covers. Let me know if you have any ideas for a title, editorial
suggestions or other helpful hints. Better still, take a trip with us and
become part of the history. Below are the first few chapters.
