Michelin has done as much to enhance mobility as any company in the world. The company patented the pneumatic, or air-filled tire in the late 1800s. This was a milestone moment in mobility, permitting automobile owners to travel at great length in a single journey. Then, in an effort to prompt travelers to enjoy their newfound mobility, the company created guides and detailed maps to steer motorists on their way. The Michelin Tuscany Green Guide is on sale now for a retail price of $21.99. To find out more about Michelin travel publications visit www.michelintravel.com.
