Title: Venice in black and white
Review: This is a dull read - one doge, pope and sea battle after another. It's missing the life and romance of one of the world's most beautiful and unique places. Very little content about music, art, or the daily life of the averge citizen.I give it thumbs up for covering the span of history from swamp land to Napoleon. But Ruskin's Stones of Venice would be more interesting for the traveler.
