France (Eyewitness Travel Guides)

France (Eyewitness Travel Guides)

  • ISBN13: 9780756660567
  • Condition: New
  • Notes: BRAND NEW FROM PUBLISHER! 100% Satisfaction Guarantee. Tracking provided on most orders. Buy with Confidence! Millions of books sold!

The chapters of this book have been divided into 16 color-coded regions that reflect the diversity of France. These are based on the country’s historical regions that were often defined by their geography and landscape as much as by their influence and power. Each has developed its own special flavor; its own architecture, cuisine, customs, music, dress, dialect and even language. The pages of the Eyewitness Travel Guide will give a taste of these areas and show you what there is to see and do.You’d be hard-pressed to find a more comprehensive, engrossing, and just plain fun-to-read guidebook than the Eyewitness Travel Guide: France. Spilling over with all sorts of useful information for the traveler, you’ll find three-dimensional drawings, floor plans, and detailed neighborhood maps, as well as timelines, charts, even Metro stations. Broken into four sections–”Introducing France,” “Region by Region” (covering Paris quite impressively, as well as the Loire Valley, Provence, Brittany, and Normandy), “Traveler’s Needs,” and “Survival Guide”–the guide paints a complete picture of the country. Readers will especially appreciate the hundreds of color photos of everything from ski towns in the Alps to the beaches of St. Tropez to vineyards of the Rhone Valley. You’ll also find street-by-street illustrated city walks (Paris’s Champs-Élysées and St. Germain-des-Pres are two good ones), not to mention the best brasseries, bistros, and boulangeries. –Jill Fergus
