Shades of Maremma

Shades of Maremma: The Mesmerizing Soul of Tuscany

Shades of Maremma is a travel guide that will take you to the magical world of Maremma, characterized by dreams and intense colors. The perfect combination of the two is a travel experience demonstrated by colors, stories and poetry describing this special area of Tuscany. Little known by tourists and adored by Italians, Maremma is a parallel world to be discovered in Tuscany, sharing much in common with the region that it belongs to but at the same time unique for its flavors, local history and culture, and intense contrasts between sea/coastline and mountains/plains, the words and images that not only accompany the traveler who visits Maremma but transforms him/her into a true, albeit temporary, inhabitant of the this magical area. The book was researched by a group of FUA students composed of studyabroaders and Robert Morris University students in the 2009 Summer Session. It was published by Ingorda for Florence Campus Publishing, which unites FUA and Apicius, and debuted at the James Beard Foundation on October 23rd, 2010.
