About the author
Edward Hutton
220 books4 followersEdward Hutton (1879-1969) was a British author of travel books and various Italian subjects.
He was one of the founders of the British Institute of Florence and during World War II Hutton aided in the protection of Italian historical sites.
Hutton first went to Italy when he was twenty-one. In the spring of 1901, he and his wife rented the Casa di Boccaccio at Ponte a Mensola, east of Florence, not far from I Tatti into which the Berensons had moved at around the same time, and from Janet Ross at Poggio Gherardo.
Here Hutton began to write the travel books that were to become famous, e.g. The Cities of Umbria (London, 1905), Florence and Northern Tuscany (London, 1907), Siena and Southern Tuscany (London, 1910), Venice and Venetia (London, 1911) Rome (London, 1912), Naples and Southern Italy (London, 1915).
