The author explains that the principle focus of his book is in on the Italian side of the "Riviera" rather than the more famous sites of the Cote D'Azur. It describes the bay of Monte Carlo and the town of Nice, but brings to life the towns along the Italian coastline, including Portofino, Le Cinque Terre, San Remo and Ventimiglia.
