Article reflecting on changes in Tuscany, Italy, and their implications for Britain and the rest of Europe. Handy reveals that his stay in Tuscany taught him a series of truths. Chief among these truths is the realization that what may seem to be the end of something is never really the end, that how societies and individuals make money is less remembered than how they spend it, and, last, that one should not put one's trust in institutions, rules, and laws, but in families, tribes, and villages because they last longer and fail the individual less often.
