Venice is a resplendent city of a thousand islands in the middle of
a lagoon, which has an elegant and eventful history. Her
geographical location and the political and commercial shrewdness
of her former rulers, together with the spirit of her citizens once
made her the mistress of the seas and master of a great empire.
This journal is intended to provide helpful, descriptive and
enjoyable routes to explore, as well as providing many interesting
historical and architectural facts throughout its passage. As an
artist the author has painted a journalistic picture of Venice by
visiting the 'Serenissima' each month over the course of a year to
enjoy the islands and understand the Venetians themselves, who have
battled through centuries of evolution, toil and achievement.
Throughout each interesting tour John has recorded many scenes in
pen and ink water colour sketches, which he feels will bring the
beauty and history of the Venetian islands to both the armchair
reader as well as those who explore the Serenissima.
