''A Holiday in Umbria'' is a travelogue written by Thomas Graham Jackson and published in 1917. The book details the author’s trip to the Umbria region of Italy, where he explores the beautiful countryside and visits the historic towns of Perugia, Assisi, and Gubbio. In addition to his travels in Umbria, Jackson also provides an account of his visit to Urbino, a city renowned for its art and architecture. He devotes a significant portion of the book to discussing the ''Cortegiano'' of Castiglione, a famous Italian Renaissance text that explores the ideal behavior of courtiers. Throughout the book, Jackson provides vivid descriptions of the landscapes, buildings, and people he encounters, as well as his own reflections on the history and culture of the region. ''A Holiday in Umbria'' is a charming and informative travelogue that offers readers a glimpse into the beauty and richness of Italy’s Umbria region.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
