Title
Old Calabria (Marlboro Travel),New
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
First published in 1915, Old Calabria is a comprehensive and exciting account of adventure travel. Captivated by the pagan quality of the mezzogiorno, Norman Douglas plunged into Calabria, the southernmost and most backward part of Italy (a province that was still largely devoid of any form of modern amenity). He endured extremes of climate, scaled mountains, rode in carriages driven by villainous coachmen, and traversed remote stretches of country where murderous groups of banditti were known to roam. As Jon Manchip White points out in his introduction, it 'makes good reading, but it must have constituted a protracted and frightening ordealfrightening, that is, to anyone except someone like Douglas, possessed of a more than normal share of guts and fortitude.'
