"Alps and Sanctuaries of Piedmont and the Canton Ticino" by Samuel Butler

Though Samuel Butler was an English novelist and critic, he was also a well-versed traveler. In this book, he takes readers into Northern Italy and the Alps to visit the religious churches and sanctuaries located there. From Faido to Fusio, readers are taken on a journey through this frigid yet charming landscape to see why so many people chose there as their refuge.
