Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Italy, Vol. 3: Handbook for Traveller; Southern Italy and Sicily, With Excursions to the Lipari Islands, Malta, Sardinia, Tunis, and Corfu

Italy and Sicily, with the exception of those of Naples and a few ether towns, are sadly behind the requirements of the age; but the Editor has indicated by asterisks those which he has reason to consider compar atively respectable, clean, and reasonable. The charges in the most frequented places have a constant tendency to rise, but those of the last few years are approximately stated in the Handbook for the traveller's guidance.
