520 2  "Hidden Tuscany vividly displays the coastal areas of 
       Tuscany, a territory often overlooked by visitors to Italy
       eager to see Chianti, Florence or Siena. Veteran 
       journalist and Italophile John Keahey points out the keen 
       distinctions that the western cities maintain: in food, 
       lifestyle, and the way its artists are paving new 
       directions in art that differ mightily from the 
       Renaissance-rich interior.  Keahey interviews sculptors 
       and their artigiani, craftsmen and women who toil in the 
       marble studios, eating their lunch in workers' clubs and 
       cafes. From beach locales such as Viareggio, to Livorno 
       (which has Venetian-style canals), modern Orbetello and 
       the seven islands of the Tuscan Archipelago, Keahey 
       reveals beaches rich in European visitors and magnificent 
       medieval villages that rarely see outsiders. The larger, 
       better-known Tuscan coastal city Pisa can even surprise a 
       curious visitor with places of solitude.  Keahey's 
       previous books on Italy have always received widespread 
       and complimentary review coverage--garnering praise for 
       the depth of his research and his comprehensive analysis. 
       Travelers instantly flock to books about Tuscany, and this
       one promotes towns and villages that are often missed by 
       tourists, letting readers in on these 'secret' 
       destinations. For armchair travelers or vacation seekers, 
       Hidden Tuscany puts a very human face on the region in 
       Keahey's discussion of food, history and language. And the
       result is mesmerizing"--|cProvided by publisher.
