A personal tour of Sardinia in which the author aims to portray the colour and charm of the island and the wealth of its history, from tribal forts to Romanesque basilicas and from Nelson to Garibaldi. He also recalls the reactions of earlier travellers from classical days to D.H. Lawrence.
This account of the island of Sardinia is a blend of travel, history and personal memoir from the author Alan Ross. His holiday journey takes the reader on a tour of the island in the days when it was still untouched by tourism, and aims to evoke the colour and charm of Sardinia, from its rocky headlands and white, curving sands to its lagoons and crowded markets, basilicas and bars. Ross portrays an island which is rich in history, from tribal forts to Romanesque basilicas, from Nelson and Garibaldi to the colourful Bohemian exiles of World War I. He also recalls the reactions of earlier travellers from classical days to D.H. Lawrence. Alan Ross is a poet and writer and is the author of three travel books on Mediterranean islands.
