Helpful Score: 2

This book really pulls you right into the experiences of Frances Mayes and her journey spending summers in Italy restoring a 200 year villa located on 200 acres of land complete with olive trees, pear trees and everythign else that can be found under the sun. The book is written in such a way that you feel that you are right there with her. I happened to read it during the summertime and was inspired to FINALLY plant my own herb and vegetable garden. Recommended read!
