Summary: "Constantinople, v. 1 (of 2)" by Edmondo De Amicis is a travel narrative written during the late 19th century. The work chronicles the author's journey and observations upon his arrival in Constantinople, a city that serves as a rich tapestry of cultures, histories, and breathtaking beauty. Through his vivid descriptions, De Amicis captures the essence of the city, revealing both its grandeur and the blend of Eastern and Western influences.
