The object of the present Handbook like that of the Editor's other works of the same description is to render the traveller as independent as possible of the services of guides valets-de-place, and others of the same class to supply him with a few remarks on the progress of civili sation and art among the people with whom he is about to become acquainted and to enable him to realise to the fullest extent the enjoyment and instruction of which Italy is so fruitful a source.
The Handbook is. Moreover, intended to place the tra veller in a position to visit the places and objects most deserving of notice with the greatest possible economy of time money, and it may be added, temper; for in no country is the traveller's patience more severely put 'to the test than in some parts of Italy. The Editor will endeavour to accompany the enlightened traveller through the streets of the Italian towns, to all the principal edifices and works of art; and to guide his steps amidst the ex quisito scenery in which Italy so richly abounds.
