Beautiful photographs
This book's focus is photographs, accompanied by some commentary, thoughts, and insights from Mayes, as well as some recipes. This book is quite different from Mayes' first two books about Tuscany, which were more like travel memoirs. Frankly, I didn't read the text at all. I just enjoyed the photographs. I wish I'd had this book when I was reading Under the Tuscan Sun and Bella Tuscany because all the places she talks about in those books are scattered throughout the pages of this book in beautiful photographs. We finally get to see what Mayes' charming Bramasole house looks like, as well as the town of Cortona and the surrounding Tuscan countryside. If you haven't read Mayes' first two books, read them and have this one handy so you can see for yourself just how beautiful these houses, towns, and people are.

In Tuscany
"In Tuscany" has a great intro into the lifestyles there and more. If you are the least bit interested in anything Italian then this is the book for you. There are many beautiful pictures and easy to follow recipes. A must have for those who are looking for a ecsape from our busy lives or an inspiration to redecorate your own home.

Complete the Experience
If you have read the book, if you have travelled in Tuscany this book brings it all home visually. A delicious feast for the eye and heart.
