Since the ancient times we've heard of peculiar messengers who travel fast and far: Hermes for the Greeks; Mercury for the Romans; the incredibly fast Pheidippides who arrived from Marathon to Athens in one day; the angels; the homing pigeons trained for bringing urgent and secret messages, and many more. This book, produced in collaboration with Museo dei Tasso e della Storia postale (in Northern Italy), retraces the history of communication.

A book for: 
  • acknowledging the importance of communication in all times; 
  • retracing an interesting part of history; 
  • pretending of being in the 14th Century and having to send a urgent message to a friend.
