Overview
Rome, 1847. Renowned watercolourist Edward Lear convinces his pupil, Lord John Proby to accompany him on a painting tour of Sicily.
After Lear suggests an adventure into the Aspromonte Mountains of Calabria, the two start exploring paths untrodden by other Englishmen. Hiring a guide and a mule, the two encounter spectacular scenery as well as brigands, liberal revolutionaries and repressive monarchists.
Through many twists and turns, they learn more about themselves - and the world - than they could have ever expected.
A compelling historical mystery, John Broughton's THE ASPROMONTE RIDDLE is an exciting mix of fact, fiction and fantasy.
This is the large print edition of The Aspromonte Riddle, with a larger font / typeface for easier reading.
