Excerpt from Famous Castles and Palaces of Italy Italy, then, I have not been able to attempt. I have limited myself to those castles which have been the scenes of great historical events, or which may be considered representative of their style and epoch. I have included also a number of the more famous palaces of Italy, partly because these illustrate in many cases the transition from the military to the civil style, partly for the convenience of the traveller. As, unlike the castles, they have been the theme of countless volumes, most of quite recent date, I have dealt with them very briefly; and three or four I have neglected altogether, feeling that it was impossible to say any thing fresh concerning them or to convey any adequate idea of their history or architecture within the space allotted to me. The book is primarily intended for the English-speaking traveller, of the itinerant and arm chair varieties. I am not without the hope that it may lay the foundations for a thorough and scientific study of the mediaeval strongholds of a land which all hold so dear.
