Each year, millions of visitors travel to Florence to admire the
architectural marvels of this famous Renaissance city. In this
compact yet comprehensive volume, architect and architectural
historian Richard J. Goy offers a convenient, accessible guide to
the city's piazzas, palazzos, basilicas, and other architectural
points of interest, as well as pertinent historical details
regarding Florence's unique urban environment. Clearly laid out and
fully illustrated, this handbook is designed around a series of
expertly planned walking tours that encompass not only the city's
most admired architectural sites, but also its lesser-known gems.
Maps are tailored to each walking tour and provide additional
references and insights, along with introductory chapters on the
city's architectural history, urban design, and building materials
and techniques. Featuring a complete bibliography, glossary of key
terms, and other useful reference materials, Goy's guide will
appeal both to travelers who desire a greater architectural context
and analysis than that offered by a traditional guide and to return
visitors looking to rediscover Florence's most enchanting sites.
