The Long Leg of Italy

"It's an enjoyable, engaging and beautifully observed record of a journey spanning the length of this diverse and undeniable lovely country." ALAN BISSELL on 5 Nov. 2015

"An Entertaining and Informative Exploration of Italy.

The Long Leg of Italy is an excellent account of a couples' experience traveling through Italy. . . .

· The Long Leg of Italy is a part of the Just Us Two travel series, and once you have read it, you are sure to want to check out the others! Overall this is an outstanding book for anyone that enjoys travel. By Jamie Cawley Australia. on Amazon

· "As though chatting over the day’s adventures over a cosy cup of coffee with an excellent raconteur friend.
There are travel writers and then there is that special breed – writers who travel. Travel writers fulfil a very important information sharing role but it is the writers that travel who make you yearn to follow in their footsteps. With a Michelin Green Guide to Italy in one hand and Rosalie Marsh’s book in the other, any travellers, but particularly seniors, will need nothing else!"

· Rosalie’s charming and often irreverent comments not only inform but resonate and amuse. ‘Himself’ with his laconic asides just adds to the delightful mix! 5 stars." By Judith Sharman Amazon.US

"A thoroughly enjoyable and well-observed read . . .about a holiday with a difference . . .undertaken by a larger than life, couple of "young at heart" bikers". Alan Bissell May 13th 2016

Chasing Rainbows

"Another great book by Rosalie Marsh that should not be missed. Most enjoyable mystery tour that anyone could take from the comfort of their sofas. The flow of words employed to narrate it, is in itself most refreshing making this tour a relaxing adventure not to be missed. A family book that should appeal to everyone." Joseph Abela. Author.

· "This well written book is both funny and informative. As a map lover myself I found the map versus sat. nav. theme running throughout the book very amusing. For anyone planning on undertaking such a journey, it is an excellent travelogue with plenty of useful tips. For those who weren't thinking of venturing down that road, I guarantee that by the end of the book, you will be yearning to do so. A great follow up to Just Us Two." Amazon reader.
