Inhaltsangabe

A journey to France can be a journey through our shared history. Tragic and stirring names from the past scatter the French countryside, places such as Agincourt, Crecy, Aquitaine, Rouen - where Joan of Arc was burnt buy the English at the stake - and a stretch of beach on the Cherbourg peninsula where Edward III knighted the Black Prince - plus many more. This useful book will pinpoint the places for the visitor, explain their historical significance in the context of the war, and also show with maps and photographs what there is to see and do in the town or site today.
