Chasing the Rose - An Adventure in the Venetian Countryside

Allen and Unwin, 2014. Minor wear to top of dustjacket spine, otherwise good secondhand condition.

From the author of the best-selling A VENETIAN AFFAIR, here is the charming chronicle of his search for the identity of a mysterious old rose. Andrea di Robilant's tale takes us back to the time of Josephine Bonaparte, as well as some of the most delightful rose gardens in Italy today, brought to colourful life on the page in the watercolours of artist Nina Fuga.
