The Companion Guide to Venice

The guide is organized in thematic chapters. Themes include particular historical institutions, such as the scuola, or quarters, such as perpetually crowded with tourists San Marco and the more quiet Cannaregio. This allows the author to space between history, art and traditions and gives the reader the possibility to choose a specific aspect of Venice to explore.
