About the Book

Not since Mark Twain invaded Europe in Innocents Abroad has travel been so much fun, as we follow The Clean Plate Club through the daily ritual of morning coffee, frequent gelato, pranzo and cena. Punctuated by visits into museums, churches, and countless stores, in search of the Holy Bargain.

Filled with humor, love, and an amazing number of incredibly helpful travel tips-- and more than a few cautionary traveler's misadventures.

An irreverent, rollicking–and totally accurate–depiction of travel throughout Italy–loving every moment of it.


About the Author

Once upon a time, the author naively thought he could "do" Italy in two weeks; boy, was he in for a surprise! Since that first, all-too-brief trip in 1994, he has returned every year, exploring more and more of "Bella Italia" and enjoying every minute of it.
