Customer comments on this selection.
 Great Book!
I loved it! I don't have more to say than the others here except, what the hell is with that ONE STAR from someone who had only positive things to say about it?
 A great book for Vespa lovers and travellers to Italy!
As an owner of a Vespa with little free time or enough daring to travel solo through Italy myself, I found this book to be a wonderful way to fulfill a fantasy. Moore's writing is accessible to all readers regardless of their Vespa status. It works as well as a travelogue for anyone considering an off-the-beaten-path tour of Italy as it does for those of us with a special love for the joy of riding a Vespa.
I also recommend his short piece on riding in Vietnam which can be purchased through Amazon too.
Here's hoping that Moore will find himself on a Vespa with pen and paper in some exotic (or not so exotic) place soon!
The 'Sweet Life' doesn't get much sweeter...
Never have I been more entertained by, or more envious of, of an author's escapades than in Peter Moore's 'Vroom with a View.' If you already love Vespas, it's a must-read... if, on the other hand, you'd never given the lovable scooters more than a second thought, be prepared to spend countless hours scouring the internet for your own personal Sophia.
Romance between a Guy on a Vespa and Italy
Absolutely charming. Mr. Moore has technical tribulations with the ancient Vespa he purchases, but that only adds to the story of how he falls in love with Northern Italy. Go to his website disclosed at the back of the book for the extra photos he took. If I ever get to Chianti, I will buy a modern Vespa and travel the same route.
A fun book to read
After doing my own smaller version of touring through Italy, its fun to read about another person's adventures. I'm reading it and knowing exactly what he is talking about. Its a really fun read.
