Format: Paperback

Condition: Standard Secondhand — £1.00
What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

The biggest island in the Mediterranean, Sicily possesses a strangely savage beauty and has been the setting for cultures' great legends: the mythic garden of Persephone, an Islamic paradise on earth and the fairy-tale Norman kingdom. But Sicily does not shape itself purely by its past; its people are lively and forward looking and Cadogan's Italian experts have combined the perfect measure of wit and insight with historical analysis and cultural detail to capture the essence of this enthralling land. From the first view of the Ionian Coast, the 'Gateway to Sicily' and the island's most striking, to the smouldering peak of Mount Etna, Europe's highest volcano, Sicily's mystical landscape casts an enduring spell. Cadogan reveals the fantastic architecture of Syracuse on the southeast coast and the ancient sites of Tindari, Himera and Solunto dotted along the Tyrrhenian Coast; and leads travelers to the best plate of swordfish involtini on Lipari and the finest wine in Marsala. Complete with full travel information, maps and at-a-glance highlights, Cadogan is the only guide travelers need to discover the full majesty of Sicily.
