 Time Out Naples - Capri, Sorrento and the Amalfi Coast 
This stunning Mediterranean city is enjoying a new-found self-confidence. Recent years have seen a dramatic reclamation of its heritage, as piazze that once functioned as car parks have been restored to their original glory in a clean-up process that is almost complete. Naples today is once again recognisable as the place that drew the Grand Tourists with its unique combination of outstanding beauty and overtones of mythology. But the bustle, the street-life, the numerous cafes, bars and restaurants remain. The guide will also take you beyond the city to explore the best of the Amalfi coast, the town of Sorrento, the islands of Capri, Ischia and Procida and the ancient sites of Pompeii and Herculaneum.

  The Food Lover's Companion to Naples and the Campania  - Carla Capalbo
Naples and the Campania are home to one of the most vibrant, but under-appreciated cuisines of Italy, and in order to make it better known the Government of the Regione of Campania has commissioned this sequel to Carla Capalbo's well-known Food Lover's Companion to Tuscany - a task that has taken two solid years of research. Like the earlier volume, the Food Lover's Companion to Naples and the Campania covers restaurants, trattorias, osterias, wineries, food shops, and artisan producers of cheeses, meats, honey, ice cream, aperitifs, and even perfumes. There are full descriptions of the many specialities of the region, such as mozzarella, recipes for local dishes, and a wealth of information for the traveller. Over 200 photographs in full colour bring the extraordinary gastronomic riches of this region to life. Directions, opening times, telephone numbers and other essential details are given, as well as maps of each province. Both practical and personal, this is the most complete and informative guide of its kind available, and the ideal companion to any exploration of Naples and its region.

History of Campania

 History of Italy  -  WikipediA
Italy's history is perhaps the most important one for the cultural and social development of the Mediterranean area as a whole. The country has been host to important human activities in prehistoric times, and therefore archaeological sites of note can be found in many regions: Latium and Tuscany, Umbria and Basilicata. After Magna Graecia, the Etruscan civilisation and especially the Roman Empire that came to dominate this part of the world for many centuries, came the medieval Humanism and the Renaissance that further helped to shape European philosophy and art.
