It is the first monograph by Giuseppe Bellafiore, published for the first time in 1956 and later translated into German and English. Today, after 58 years, it is still available for sale in its 7th edition. Known for its easily identifiable red cover it has guided tourists as well as Palermitans around the city, becoming a referential text. The guide is divided into 22 itineraries, leading the reader from the heart of Palermo to its surroundings, Bagheria and Monreale. It includes ink drawings replacing the usual photographic material.
The updated Italian and English editions of 2014, also available in e-book, are edited by Architect Susanna Bellafiore.
