A review by _maia3_
A History of Venice by John Julius Norwich

informative slow-paced

4.5

I enjoyed the book - I cannot speak as anything more than an amateur, but I enjoyed the inclusion of translated and untranslated sources, as well as links to still-standing buildings in Venice. However, I would have liked more references to sources as sometimes Lord Norwich will offhandedly mention his source, which will not only surprise me, but also make me question the where all the other information was coming from. Highly recommend!
