Discover Trieste's Habsburg-era glories, multi-ethnic influences and burgeoning cultural life with this explorer's guide to Italy's alternative city destination.
Duncan J. D. Smith, noto come The Urban Explorer, viaggia fuori dai sentieri battuti per scoprire gli angoli nascosti e le località curiose del mondo. Le sue guide distintive sono realizzate per immergere i lettori nei luoghi e nelle persone insolite che ha scoperto in quattro continenti. Con un profondo affetto per i luoghi di cui scrive e un vasto archivio fotografico, Smith offre ai lettori uno sguardo avvincente su aspetti meno conosciuti della storia e della cultura. Il suo lavoro nasce da un fascino durato una vita per la storia e l'archeologia, acceso in gioventù.
