Venice: A History of Water and Land

This is a travel book: a journey through time and space. In time, because it covers the history of Venice and its statehood from its beginnings to the present day; in space, because it takes the reader to places that were part of Venetian territory and where important events for the development of the state took place.
Each chapter begins with a description of a particular and significant place, then the optics are broadened to cover the totality of historical events of a particular period. The book seeks to answer the question: what remains today of those distant events?
The author also tells about the modern history of Venice, as well as discusses the murky future of the city with a great history, which has become a tourist Mecca for the whole world.
