Clara Erskine Clement alternates scenes of the Venice she knew, its summer days, processions and island visits to Murano, Burano and Torcello, with chapters on its history: the power of the doges, the Fourth Crusade at Constantinople, the Council of Ten, Marino Faliero, Carlo Zeno, the Foscari and Carmagnola.
A pleasant companion for travellers and readers of Venetian history. Download the free EPUB.
