The Grand Tour: Visiting the Capitals of Europe

By Michael Bourgo

In his previous work, "Towards a More Perfect Union," Michael Bourgo took us on a light-hearted armchair journey through the United States by crafting a separate profile in verse for each of the fifty individual states. In "The Grand Tour" he guides us across the fifty countries of Europe by creating a individual portrait for each of their capital cities. Once again drawing on a broad palette of subjects-- history, geography, local customs and cuisines, famous citizens, and more, he helps us to understand the unique qualities of each city. Once again he will surprise and delight you with his ability to find those amusing and eccentric features that make each city an interesting place to visit-- whether in person or on the virtual tour which you will enjoy in this book. Like the prior volume, the verse was specifically crafted to be enjoyed when read aloud, and as well, may please younger readers who are interested in travel, history and geography.
