A work 7 years in the making... After visiting Venice 12 times, including 3 seasons as a private tour guide-novelist and playwright Joshua Humphreys has at last turned into prose all that he knows of the most beautiful city on earth. Venice's incomparable richness in artistic and historical detail is matched only by the genius of its people. What made Venice such a breeding ground for leaders, adventurers, and artists? Most importantly, how were Venetians made masters of themselves and therefore the world? Adventuring through 1000 years of Venetian history, art, & genius, Imagined Treasures passes on to you all the invaluable lessons-intellectual, spiritual, & creative-that Venice's gorgeous palaces and sea-washed stones have to teach.
