Puglia from Above by Antonio Attini
From the prehistoric archaeological sites dating back to the Iron and Bronze Ages to the venerable basilica of San Nicola to the lighthouse of Santa Maria de Leuca - one of Italy's most important beacons - this book takes readers on a tour above the six provinces that make up Puglia. Superb aerial photographs linger on the architecture of the area - structures dating back to the 11-13th centuries that reflect strong Greek, Arab, Norman, and Pisan influences. We are whisked over the low coastline, the mountains along the Gargano Peninsula, and the ravines surrounding Grottaglia, gaining a newfound understanding of this complex region through hundreds of photographs.
