Manfredi Fasulo - La Penisola Sorrentina - 1906

Interesting and exhaustive local monograph titled The Sorrentina Peninsula (Vico Equense, Meta, Piano, S. Agnello, Sorrento, Massalubrense) - History, Customs and Traditions, Antiquities, a fundamental work of historical and folkloric research written by Manfredi Fasulo (Deputy Inspector of Monuments in Sorrento and Member of the Society of Homeland History in Naples), with a preface by Prof. Cav. Gaetano Amalfi, published in Naples in 1906 at the Award-Winning Typographic Establishment Cav. Gennaro M.ª Priore. The volume, the second illustrated edition rich in plates fuori testo depicting historical panoramas and monumental views such as the Panorama of Sorrento and Piano, the Panorama of Massalubrense and the House of Cornelia Tasso, presents itself elegantly bound in full cloth or half binding editorial/red with a gold title on the spine, showing overall good and genuine preservation with the physiological foxing of the era on the title page and on the inner pages that do not affect the usability of the text, representing a piece of notable bibliographic interest for collectors of Neapolitan and Campanian homeland history. In 8°, pp. 506 n.
