Description

An interesting historical-tourist guide of Cadore and the Valle di Zoldo, published in Milan in 1909 by Artaria, in the fourth edition completely redesigned.

Work by Ottone Brentari (1852–1921), historian, journalist and author of important historical-alpine guides dedicated to the territories of Trentino and Veneto, particularly appreciated for the accuracy of his geographical, historical and tourist descriptions.

The volume offers a rich testimony of the Cadore area in the early twentieth century, through descriptions of localities, towns, valleys, mountain itineraries, monuments, places of historical interest and alpine landscapes.

Especially interesting is the iconography, consisting of numerous black-and-white photographs from the period, depicting mountain panoramas, localities, buildings and characteristic views of Cadore and the Valle di Zoldo.

The copy preserves the original folded map of Cadore by Ottone Brentari, an element of particular historical, geographical and collectible interest.

The publication represents a significant testimony of Italian tourist-alpine literature from the early 1900s, of interest to collectors of historical guides, mountain books, cartography and Veneto local history.

The folded map is present and appears well preserved, with the usual folds.

Overall, a complete and interesting copy, preserved in its original editorial softcover.
