Tuscan & Andalusian Reflections: 20 Beautiful Homes Inspired by Old World Architecture $13.01 Tuscan & Andalusian Reflections: 20 Beautiful Homes Inspired by Old World Architecture

Tuscan Elements $119.95 The Tuscan house, whether a simple homestead or expansive villa, has become one of the most sought-after living environments. Its design is virtually unchanged since the Middle Ages, when landowners in the golden hills of Tuscany built country retreats with gardens, porticoes, and loggias. The landowners often drew upon the natural resources of the region-and it is these materials that give the Tuscan house its unique character. Tuscan Elements brings to life the colors, textures, and aesthetics of the Tuscan house-the magnificent stone and marble work; the hardwoods like chestnut, oak, and elm; earthy terra-cotta and brick; and the all-important water feature, used in ponds, fountains, and pools. This unique, visual sourcebook deconstructs the typical Tuscan home and examines its basic components in dazzling detail, from the tiled roof and floor, thick stone exterior walls, and vine-covered loggia to the exposed wooden beams, luminous frescoes, and the sunny courtyard garden with an ancient well or exquisite swimming pool. Filled with extraordinary photos by world-famous interiors photographer Simon McBride, Tuscan Elements emphasizes living life well with a home that nurtures and comforts, accentuates the importance of family and friends, and entertains with good food and drink. For anyone interested in infusing their present home and garden with a little bit of Tuscany, here is a delightful source of never- ending inspiration.

Tuscan Paradise $1.03 For A Tuscan in Paradise, Marina Schinz focuses on all the beauty to be found in Tuscany.

Tuscan Childhood $3.48 The enchantments of the Tuscan countryside are captured in this memoir of the idyllic Bohemian life the author shared with her family in their Italian castle in the years between the two world wars.When Kinta Beevor was five years old, her father, the painter Aubrey Waterfield, and her mother, a writer, settled their family into a castle near the Tuscan village of Aulla. It became the center of an artistic world that included D. H. Lawrence, Robert Trevelyan, and Rex Whistler. While the adults wrote and painted, Kinta and her brother explored the castle and the nearby Florentine villa of their great-aunt Janet Ross. They helped with the grape and olive harvests, accompanied the stonemason in his search for wild mushrooms, learned how to "tickle trout." They spent their summers in tents in the mountains, with shepherds and their charcoal burners. The family fled at the approach of war, which destroyed the town and damaged the castle. But Kinta would return to witness the courage and skill of the Tuscan people as they rebuilt the castle, the town, their lives, and her memories.Engaging, lyrical, and witty, A Tuscan Childhood evokes the splendors of rural Italy and what it was like to be a child blissfully ensconced there.

Tuscan Feasts and Tuscan Friends $20.49 Purchase of this book includes free trial access to www.million-books.com where you can read more than a million books for free. This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: II BIANCA MARIA There can be no doubt that any record of my Tuscan friends ought to accord a prominent place to Bianca Maria, she being one of those who has crept the closest to my heart. Bianca Maria is seven years old, but is careful to explain that she will have eight on her next birthday, although that auspicious day is nearly eleven months ahead. She has large grey eyes, which are by turns innocently appealing and mischievously gay, a quaint little face, and fair hair cut rather short and tied up on the top of her head with a large bow, or plaited in a tail of about a finger's length and thickness down the back. When I first met Bianca Maria she was staying in the country with a large family of cousins, and as I drove up to the door I saw her playing in an old Etruscan sarcophagus, which, hewn thousands of years back, had once, doubtless, held the bones of some king or warrior, but was now the storehouse for dolls, mud-pies, and all the treasures of a child. She met me in the most friendly spirit, and allthe children were about me in a moment, chattering like a flock of sparrows, offering bunches of wilted, short-stalked flowers clasped overlong in small hot hands, and begging me to go and visit rabbits, guinea-pigs, and the other possessions dear to childish hearts. For me Bianca Maria's principal charm lies in her quaint, old-fashioned manner. The child of a great family, she looks, but for the costume, for all the world like one of those stiff, dainty little figures which delight us in the frescoes of Ghirlandajo and the painters of his day, and I can well imagine her small, demure face looking down upon me from some church or cloister wall. She is an accurate and careful little person, eating only of such things as experience has led her to believe whole...

The Tuscan Lifestyle $24 by P.F. Listri - publication year: 2002 - paperback with flaps. 230x280 mm. 160 pp. - 249 colour and b&w illustrations -The temptation is to view this as just one more book about Tuscany. Such a work would in any case be understandable. in the light of a recent survey indicating that Tuscany is seen from abroad as a “landscape of great beauty and environmental quality where everything is in a human dimension”. revolving around “the artistic. historic and cultural centre of Florence. transposed from the Renaissance to the contemporary age”. Yet this new publication has a rather different purpose. It does not dwell on the region’s famous products. it does not narrate once again its eventful and colourful history. nor focus on the sumptuous art works that comprise what is the finest and most extensive collection in the world. It does not extol to excess the unequalled atmosphere of the landscape nor is it over-emphatic in its praise of the region’s intrinsic sense of harmonious physical and mental proportion.What it does seek to do is to tie together these and other characteristics in order to grasp what concretely derives from them today. namely a style of life. an existential unicum. This is the region’s most precious quality. the specificity of a productive and innovative Tuscany that is fully integrated into the complexities of the contemporary age. Here art and crafts. tradition and innovation. nature and history. language and products. city and countryside blend together. giving living form to a quality of life which is now the rarest and most sought after of all commodities. one where it is possible to attain a greater sense of individual well-being and a more ordered and civil coexistence.The book also has the rare merit of highlighting important and perhaps less well-known aspects of Tuscanicity – its productive skills. traditional artefacts. flair for research. capacity for agriculture renewal and the achievements of sophisticated technology combined with the intelligence of an ancient tradition. The author explains and recounts how all these things hold together. how an invisible thread connects minute details of everyday life to the pinnacles of history and art. creating what can be defined as ‘Tuscan style’.This work does not focus on arid production figures and balance sheets. nor on the objects of the forced enthusiasm of tourists. Rather it recounts and persuades us of the validity of the points we have just mentioned. presenting the organic completeness of a small cosmos which combines the ancient and the modern and where a perspective a misura d’uomo yields a rare quality which is visible in everyday life.We are pleased to have promoted and encouraged this work. and we commend it to readers as a small Baedeker of the spirit. Whether it ends up in the hands of knowledgeable Tuscans or of curious foreign visitors. we believe it will be both useful and well-received

In Tuscany: Tuscan Towns, Tuscan Types and the Tuscan Tongue $23.97 In Tuscany: Tuscan Towns, Tuscan Types and the Tuscan Tongue

From the Tables of Tuscan Women $3.98 A Tuscan cookbook with a difference, From the Tables of Tuscan Women turns its gaze away from the overly familiar areas of Florence and Siena, and looks westward to the less familiar province of Lucca. Tuscany's most diverse province geographically, Lucca spans mountains and forests, olive groves and terraced vineyards, with a pristine coastline on the Tyrrhenian Sea.The cuisine of Lucca reflects both the richness of this diversity and the wealth of ingredients it provides -- from fritto misto di pesce, an assortment of fish battered and fried in olive oil, to cacciucci, a soup made entirely of fish and served on thick slices of toasted bread rubbed with garlic, to castagnaccia a sweet cake made with chestnut flour.Integral to the way of life there, Lucchesian food is inextricably bound up with the character of its people and their "uniquely Mediterranean lifestyle that mixes marvelous climate, a relaxed attitude, and an unrelenting passion of sitting down at the table," as Anne Bianchi says in her introduction.So, in order to most fully give the flavor of the cuisine of Lucca, Anne Bianchi, who has spent much of her life in Tuscany, introduces us to the spirit of the province and the soul of any Tuscan meal: its people. "No people anywhere in the world are more dramatic, outspoken, or riotously arrogant," she writes. In these pages we meet nine amazing Tuscan women, "hear their stories, stroll through their towns, and sample the best of their recipes." These virtuoso chefs share their secrets and opinions on everything from sauces to politics, spicing their conversation with witty and revealing anecdotes of life in their rural villages. Accompanied by lively photos, From the Tables of Tuscan Women gives intimate access to the culinary recipes and traditions of Lucca while offering an incomparable Tuscan experience. The voracious reader and adventurous cook will find new roads down which to travel, as well as sumptuous dishes to sample -- whose recipes can be easily replicated in American kitchens.

Once Upon a Tuscan Table $14.98 Emotionally resonant, wickedly candid, and warm-hearted, Once Upon a Tuscan Table is a savory stew of tantalizing recipes, memorable characters, and lively anecdotes. As Canadian-born Sharon Oddson Gargani recounts her life, in good times and bad, food is always in the foreground--from Grandma Gerda's roast stuffed goose at Christmas to the signature dishes of her internationally renowned Florentine restaurant and cooking school. In a narrative worthy of comic opera, we follow the travails and triumphs of Sharon and husband Giuliano, as Trattoria Garga evolves from a tiny hole-in-the-wall to a favored haunt of glitterati set in a fourteenth-century palazzo. Over the years, accolades from Gourmet and other international magazines (including GQ's coveted Golden Dish Award and Bon Appetit's "Best Class in a Restaurant" in Florence) have come in quick succession. The author penetrates deep into the complex world of the fascinating Gargani family--ruled by its matriarch, the inimitable Zoe--whose immense vitality goes hand in hand with medieval mysticism and Old World superstition. Once Upon a Tuscan Table is a touching love story, a thrilling travel narrative, a boisterously amusing coming-of-age chronicle, and, of course, a fabulous cookbook, in which every recipe is a gem.

A Tuscan Childhood $11.27 Beevor's delightful memoir chronicles the days she and her eccentric parents spent in a huge, dilapidated castle in Tuscany after the First World War. Forced to leave when fascism took over Italy, the family changed in sad, irrevocable ways: her brother was killed in the war, her artist-father died, her neglectful journalist-mother became old and lame. When Beevor returned as an old woman, she found tragic changes, but she also rediscovered the spirit and resilience of the Italian peasantry. Her unpretentious memoir is both a portrait of a certain kind of early 20th-century British expatriate, and a loving tribute to the people of Tuscany, rich and poor, whom she came to know well during her time there.

Around the Tuscan Table $34.98 Renowned food scholar Carole Counihan serves up a delicious narrative about family and food in twentieth-century Florence. By looking at how family, and especially gender relations, have changed in Florence since the ending of World War II and continuing on to an examination of current food practices today, Around the Tuscan Table offers a portrait of the changing nature of modern life as exemplified through food. How food is produced, distributed, and consumed speaks volumes about a given culture, and this compelling and artfully narrated book aims to preserve, propagate, and interpret Florentines' world-renowned cuisine and culture. At the market, in the kitchen, and around the table, Counihan gives readers a taste of everyday life in this region of Italy: how eating together unites the family; how the production of food is gendered; how food is a key tool of socialization, and how culture forms aesthetic tastes. With more than 20 illustrations and age-old family recipes, this is a treat for the senses and the intellect.
