Venice: A Sketchbook Guide

by Matthew Rice

Now that most practical information needed when travelling—restaurants, hotels, bus and train times—is more up-to-date when researched online, the role of a physical guidebook is harder to nail down. Venice: A Sketchbook Guide by watercolour artist Matthew Rice offers a solution: this guidebook is a short, detailed, beautiful, quirky introduction to a city telling you everything you need to know for a meaningful visit.

The book, according to the author

“I was trying to help people find, it’s a bit corny to say the ‘real’ Venice, but at least a Venice that’s as unaffected by change as one could hope to find.”
