From the translated description, the book sounds superb. What a shame it's all in Italian. Also...............dread to think of the price of both volumes, which you have to request. Be a lovely thing to have though.

The single volume is £95 which, as the years roll on, is less of a surprise than it used to be for a decent low volume book.  That book is "the story", the second volume seems to be the 49 works HFs traced from build through their careers.

It was discussed before Christmas - Santa didn't notice...
