Hedonistis, charming, witty, and vastly learned, Norman Douglas was one of this century's great travellers in Italy. Here, relating the ancient Siren myth to the landscape and history of the Bay of Naples, he gives us a feast of scholarship and colourful speculation - on the character of Tiberius, on the winds and their folklore, on the Blue Grotto, on the local ghosts, saints, wines, and caves.
