This updated and unabridged edition of The Stones of Venice introduces new readers to John Ruskin’s classic Victorian text.

By John Ruskin's own account, 1858 was a turning-point in his life -- the year in which he turned away from his evangelical upbringing toward a more humanistic attitude. The 132 letters included in this volume were written during Ruskin's four-month tour of France, Switzerland, and Northern Italy.
