He painted a word portrait of Piedmont
HAVING once visited the region, our family was overjoyed to discover the splendid article on Italy’s Piedmont area, “Seeing Italy at a Snail’s Pace” [Feb. 11] by David Downie.
It was so much more than a blueprint of a region, conveying as it does, the very life and breath of these towns.
Downie’s article shows so much more than the usual travel writing does.
