Things Seen in Venice

Things Seen in Venice, written by Lonsdale Ragg in 1920, is a guidebook that captures the essence of Venice, a city renowned for its canals, architecture, and art. Co-authored with his wife Laura Ragg, the book reflects their deep familiarity with the city, as Lonsdale served as chaplain of St. George's English church from 1905 to 1909. Unlike many guidebooks of its time, this work remains relevant, offering insights into Venice's enduring charm and hidden gems, making it a valuable resource for both visitors and armchair travelers.
