Rome Through the Mist:
Walks Among the Fountains of the Eternal City
(An Unusual Guide to Rome’s Fountains and Historic Sights)
Available at all major booksellers!
Welcome to my site!
If you’d like to join me for a ramble around Italy’s captivating regions, and you have a taste for the unusual, you can sample a selection of my magazine pieces by clicking “Articles”.
And be sure to select “Books” or the “Sample Chapter” button for a quick peek at my guide to Rome using the city’s famous fountains as mileposts. For example, chapter one (see below) takes us from Piazza Barberini to the top of the Quirinale Hill, and on the way, between the fountains, you’ll find monks’ bones decorating a crypt, a bar with Rome’s most artistic sandwiches, the memorable location of an iconic movie scene, an underground “City of Water”, the President of Italy’s palace, a grand piazza with sweeping views of Rome, two beautiful baroque churches, and a hilltop corner where you can see three of Rome’s standing obelisks at once - and much more!
You’re invited to “Follow the Fountains and Find the Real Rome!”
