Description: Rising from the Mediterranean like a continent in miniature, Sardinia has puzzled travelers, conquerors, and archaeologists for millennia. This wide-ranging portrait traces the island from its ancient geological origins and the mysterious stone towers of the Nuragic civilization through waves of Phoenician, Roman, and Aragonese influence, into the shepherd-haunted highlands and dazzling coastlines of today. Along the way, it explores Sardinia's distinctive languages, polyphonic songs, and beloved cuisine of pane carasau, pecorino, and sea-salted bounty, closing with practical guidance for those ready to explore the island themselves.
