Birthplace of the Renaissance, home of the Italian language and centre of the art world, Florence, or “The Lily” as it is known by its inhabitants, gets its name from the flower which dominates the city’s coat of arms. It is a living, breathing open-air museum: taking a walk along the Lungarno as far as Pontevecchio and stopping for a while in Piazza della Signoria to admire the Dome and the Giotto Bell Tower is an unforgettable experience. The Florence of today teems with throbbing, fermenting artists whose excellence in the field of fashion is turning the city into a style capital, in Italy second only to Milan. Even more so when Pitti Uomo, which dictates the rules for men’s elegance, takes place in January and June. Whether you are there for only 48 hours or longer, for business or leisure, this Travel Europe guide selected for you the best of the city, through new trendy addresses and well-known destinations, contemporary design and tradition, low budget solutions and more exclusive locations. The guide provides you quick information about tourist trails, shopping, museums, hotels, cafés, restaurants and clubs. Moreover, a conversation manual, a city map and a transport map.

This seventh volume in the Collected Works of Florence Nightingale consists of letters, observations, and notes from Florence Nightingale’s many trips to Europe, beginning with a family journey when she was a teenager. It includes annotations she made on opera libretti from her “music mad” phase and her winter in Rome (1847-48) which were so important in shaping her liberal politics and support for independence movements. Her letters and notes from Greece and central Europe in 1850, and her Kaisers- werth stay in 1851, reveal her developing ideas on social reform, as well as her first professional training. Materials from 1853 provide information on her training in Paris hospitals. Volume 7 also contains letters and observations from her excursions to Scotland, Ireland, and all over England, from her childhood on. Many of the letters in European Travels were uncatalogued items buried in archives and will be new to Nightingale scholars. The information gathered in this volume adds considerably to what can be learned about the formative influences in Nightingale’s life, politics, and faith. Currently, Volumes 1 to 11 are available in e-book version by subscription or from university and college libraries through the following vendors: Canadian Electronic Library, Ebrary, MyiLibrary, and Netlibrary.

Change the world one trip at a time. In this illuminating collection of stories and lessons from the road, acclaimed travel writer Rick Steves shares a powerful message that resonates now more than ever. With the world facing divisive and often frightening events, from Trump, Brexit, and Erdogan, to climate change, nativism, and populism, there's never been a more important time to travel. Rick believes the risks of travel are widely exaggerated, and that fear is for people who don't get out much. After years of living out of a suitcase, he still marvels at how different cultures find different truths to be self-evident. By sharing his experiences from Europe, Central America, Asia, and the Middle East, Rick shows how we can learn more about own country by viewing it from afar. With gripping stories from Rick's decades of exploration, this fully revised edition of Travel as a Political Act is an antidote to the current climate of xenophobia. When we travel thoughtfully, we bring back the most beautiful souvenir of all: a broader perspective on the world that we all call home. All royalties from the sale of Travel as a Political Act are donated to support the work of Bread for the World, a non-partisan organization working to end hunger at home and abroad.
