Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Italians of to-Day After one of the rugged Alpine passes, how beautiful is the Lombard plain! Barbarians, in ancient days, felt its irresistible charm. Probably it was very much the same when they saw it that it is now - always cultivated, fertile, green, and a marvel of skilful irrigation! What a delicious freshness in the air from these little artificial streamlets that weave a blue network over the land! They cross the highways, they intersect the fields, they come near each other, they go far apart; finally, one by one, they fall into the wide canal, which carries elsewhere the fertilizing water, forever running, yet never wasted. From all this irrigation it results that the land gives four or five crops of hay; the ricefields are crowded with heavy ears; the clover is like a blossoming thicket; the cornfields, like canebrakes. The whole land is of marvellous fertility; and still the population is poor. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
