Le Marche: an insider's guide will help you discover Italy's Marche, or Marches, region, the place to go if you want a taste of real Italy, an Italy still relatively untouched by the ravages of mass tourism. You'll find plenty of outstanding art and architecture, discover enchanting small towns off the beaten tourist trail, see some of central Italy's most spectacular countryside, and taste excellent "cucina tipica". The book has been written by Anglo-Italian travel writer Peter Greene, who has lived and worked in the region for more than thirty years, and also runs the popular Marche Voyager website. It's designed to give an honest view of the beauty and variety on offer, and uses a concise but intelligent style. It assumes most visitors are here to relax, and offers just enough to inform, without swamping the reader with endless detail. It was extensively updated in June 2021.
