Vroom With A View is a giggle-filled rev around Italy aboard a vintage Vespa motor scooter.
I am a born-again Italian. In the same way I love everything about Italy, I loved everything about this book. Good travel writing makes you want to jump out of your chair and hit the road yourself.

From Jacqueline's list on funny road trip memoirs.
