Join Monty Don, Britain's pre-eminent gardener, and acclaimed
photographer Derry Moore on their historic journey through the most
stunning gardens of Venice and the Veneto. Few world cities hold
the romance and historical sweep of Venice. Thousands visit every
year - and a mixture of crowds and climate leave it vulnerable, so
much so it is often said to be in danger of sinking - but away from
the usual tourist haunts around St. Mark's square are exceptional
hidden treasures, some 500 gardens, many of them with fascinating
stories. Starting in the heart of the city and working their way
out to the Veneto, Monty and Derry celebrate the beauty of these
places and tell their unique stories: from a beautiful nunnery
garden with a history of exotic animals and a kitchen garden of the
historic Foundation to the Madonna church to the estates of famous
Venetian families, like the spectacular Giusti Renaissance garden.
With stunning full colour photography throughout, Venice Gardens
will give readers new insight into one of the world's most beloved
cities - you won't see Venice the same way again.
