  You don’t need to walk across Italy to find meaning. But it sure doesn’t hurt. 
  Walking Through Tuscany is a memoir about swapping comfort for carafes of wine, trail dust, and a slower kind of travel. What started as a long-distance walk along the Via Francigena turned into something more human—mountains crossed, vineyards wandered, and strangers turned friends. 
  This isn’t a guidebook. It’s the story of what happens when you stop rushing: broken sandals, golden hour moments, and a version of Tuscany you won’t find on a postcard. 
  We thought we were just walking. Turns out, we were writing the story of our lives.

  Highland American Empires: Kingdoms in the Clouds (3 in 1) explores the rise, achievements, and legacies of three remarkable civilizations that flourished in the rugged highlands of South America: Tiwanaku, the Wari Empire, and the Tairona Civilization. These cultures adapted to extreme altitudes, developing sophisticated cities, engineering feats, and complex societies that influenced later Andean and Mesoamerican civilizations.   
  Journey into the world of Tiwanaku, a spiritual and political center near Lake Titicaca, known for its massive stone structures, intricate carvings, and advanced understanding of agriculture and irrigation. Its influence spread across the Andean region, shaping cultural and religious traditions that endured for centuries.   
  Discover the Wari Empire, one of the first true imperial powers of the Andes, which established extensive road networks, administrative centers, and urban planning techniques that prefigured the later Inca civilization. Their mastery of terraced farming and state organization allowed them to dominate the region for hundreds of years.   
  Uncover the Tairona Civilization, a lesser-known yet sophisticated society that thrived in the mountainous regions of present-day Colombia. Renowned for their breathtaking gold craftsmanship, elaborate stone cities, and harmonious integration with the surrounding environment, the Tairona left a legacy that still resonates among their modern descendants, the Kogi people.   
  From sacred temples to vast road systems, these highland empires demonstrated remarkable resilience and ingenuity. This book is perfect for history enthusiasts seeking to explore the hidden civilizations that once ruled the mountain landscapes of the Americas.
