Descripción editorial

Tuscany. It’s not only the rich region that gave birth to “la bella lingua,” the language of modern-day Italy. It’s not only the birthplace of some

of the greatest artists and poets of the world like Dante, Leonardo, Michelangelo and Vasari. It’s also a mysterious land enveloped in a

gauzy veil of legends, ghost-stories and folklore. This book, The Fairy Wood is the first volume in a series dedicated to exploring Tuscany’s

most interesting medieval and more modern legends through vivid photographs. The beechwood photo, for example, can be found at the base

of the mountain topped by La Verna, the area where it is said that Saint Francis received the stigmata of Christ in 1224. With that story

and others, the following pages will wrap you in the same fairy-cloth of mystery that our surrounds Tuscany. You’ll visit castles, monasteries,

more secluded hermitages, palaces, and other medieval settings where mysteries continue to hover between the walls. Do not drink water

only from school books or travel guides, but satiate your real thirst for Tuscan romance through the stories of magic and mystery that have

been handed down by from generation to generation. Immerse yourself in the fantastic tales of Arezzo and the Casentino Valley. Tuscany like

you have never visited before. Welcome to another world.
