TIM JEPSON is a passionate and lifelong devotee of Italy. Since graduating from Oxford, he has spent long periods of time living and traveling in the country, including a year in a remote Umbrian village. Over the years, he has written some fifteen books on the country, as well as numerous articles for the Daily Telegraph, Vogue, Cond� Nast Traveller, and other publications. Now based in London, Jepson continues to visit Italy regularly, and, as a keen hiker and outdoor enthusiast, he takes a particular interest in the country's mountain and wilderness areas. He also revels in Italy's more sedentary pleasures--the food, wine, art and culture--and hopes one day to indulge them all from a small Venetian apartment of his own. MATT PROPERT is a freelance photographer and photo editor based in Santa Cruz, California. His photography has been shown in one-person exhibitions and published nationally and internationally. He has photo-edited more than 30 books for the National Geographic Society on topics ranging from Mount Everest to the history of Christianity. See less
