Italian Journeys

description Italian Journeys Overview

Italian Journeys is an 1867 travel book by the American author and diplomat William Dean Howells, written following his service as U.S. Consul in Venice from 1861 to 1865. The work serves as a companion to his earlier Venetian Life and chronicles Howells's travels through regions of the newly unified Italian peninsula, observing local customs, art, and social conditions. Howells, who later became editor of The Atlantic Monthly, brings a literary sensibility to the narrative, and the book is a significant example of 19th-century American travel writing about Italy.
