The Green Heart of Italy provides an intimate portrait of the lush and verdant region of Umbria, known as ‘Tuscany without tourists.’ The pandemic halted international travel and access to most areas of Europe, creating lasting impacts on these regions which benefit greatly from outside visitors. Now, in the post-Covid reboot of Italy’s ever growing tourist industry, Umbria is poised to attract much needed visitors to help support this central region of the country. The Green Heart of Italy weaves between exteriors and interiors of this unique emerging region, painting a picture of an oasis unknown to most. This monograph also incudes an extensive body of text, written by Frank Van Riper that provides a first hand account of these often overlooked gems.
