First published in 1914 and then revised in the 1920s, offering a travellers guide to Venice. To go to Venice without first knowing her story is a mistake, and doubly foolish because the city has been peculiarly fortunate in her chroniclers and eulogists. Mr. H. F. Brown stands first among the living, as Ruskin among the dead, but Ruskin is for the student patient under chastisement, whereas Mr. Brown's serenely human pages are for all. Of Mr. Howells' Venetian Life I have spoken more than once in this book, its truth and vivacity are a proof of how little the central Venice has altered, no matter what changes there may have been in government or how often campanili fall.
