Summary: Sicily, as I remember and love, at it's best
Review: If you've never been to Sicily it is very difficult that anyone will ever be able to describe the incredible sensations that the wonderful Italian island can grant. "Sicily" is as near you will be able to get, without having to pay the transcontinental flight to Italy. Mount Etna, the lakes of Tindari, the sea off Acitrezza, the Island-Vuclano of Stromboli, are depicted in all their splendor of colors and unique sensations by this very talented photographer. But "Sicily" does not only regard landscapes, you will see the "siciliani", meet their gazing eyes, see them work, have experience of their festivities. Sometimes you'll have the sensation of being in a time-machine, jumping back to the beginning of the 20th century. Buy the book, and the day after you'll be on a flight directed to Italy, guaranteed.

Summary: A trip to Sicily without having to leave your Reading room
Review: This book was so well photographed that I felt like I was actually there looking out my window at the images portrayed in the book. It provided a very interesting viewpoint of the photographers camera eye, and illustrated a sense of everyday existence of the citizens of Italy's famous isle. I hope to make my own visit to Sicily someday and see the same perspective that the authors had seen....as well as sample some of the fantastic foods.
