Author Biography
<b>Stephen Brewer</b> stepped off a train in Venice many years ago, took one look at the Grand Canal, and decided he agreed with Marcel Proust in thinking “When I went to Venice, my dream became my address.” He enjoys many other beautiful places, too, and often writes about them. He is the coauthor of <i>Frommer’s Best Day Trips from London</i> and <i>The Unofficial Guide to England</i> and the forthcoming <i>Unofficial Guide to Ireland,</i> both published by Wiley, as well as other books and magazine articles.
