History of Venice: Rise to Glory
video description
I'm working up a historical guidebook (as requested by a small village there) for English-speaking visitors to far southern west-coast Calabria. How about a piece on the astounding history of this forgotten land-of-passage? Tramped thru but mostly neglected by the Romans on down (altho they built a road thru it? Raided for hundreds of years by Saracen pirates, plundered for its fertile vineyards, fought over constantly but mostly ignored?
I can offer book suggestions (there aren't many.
Meanwhile I'm donating to your Patreon page.
