WORDS BY JAMES BENTLEY AND
PHOTOGRAPHS BY HUGH PALMER
THAMES HUDSON BOOKS -- $26.95
The most awe-inspiring of Palmer's many photos presents
itself near the beginning of the book.
A full-page print is dedicated to an image of ancient
Tuscany both beautiful and a bit foreboding.
"The delightfully irregular Ponte della Maddalena, a
beautifully-preserved medieval bridge, spans the river Serchio at Bargo a
Mozzano, on the route to the area of northern Tuscany known as the
Garfagnana," the photo credit explains.
That perfectly lit and vivid image, accompanied by the
late Bentley's dozens of mini-essays, makes dream of waking up under the Tuscan
sun till the end of time.
