Venture beyond the great Renaissance cities of Florence and Siena, drive a short distance from Milan, Venice, Rome or Naples, and you come to another Italy, by turns lush and verdant, rugged or parched, the countryside of ancient Rome, of Dante and St Francis of Assisi. Wild Italy will take you there.

Douglas Botting takes you through wild Britain from the broad-leaf woodlands of southern England and the rolling Yorkshire Dales of his childhood to the wind-lashed granite cliffs of the Outer Hebrides. He describes where to fish, climb, cycle, ride, camp and even go ballooning, as well as suggesting some unusual places to stay.
