Cloth. Zustand: Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. Reprint. Hardback. Ex-library with ex-library markings. Underlining in pen to a few pages. Slight browning to edges of apges through age. The English have always regarded the French with a passionate mixture of love and hatred. Simultaneously divided and linked by the Engl…ish Channel, or la Manche, both countires continue profoundly to affect the other for good or ill. In his delightfully impressionistic appreciation of Britain's closest neighbour, the author, 'an unashamed francophile', goes behind the image of the bereted onion-seller and Gauloise smoker to reveal the essence of France and the French. Ranging from the horrors of Channel-crossing today, when the first view of the Continent is the seemingly endless concrete terminal at Boulogne or the intestinal meanderings of Charles de Gaulle airport, to the sun-bleached splendour of the Provencal landscape, interespersed with olive and cypress, this book concentrates on those areas best loved by the author. Paris, with its seductive cafes, squares and churches, the magnificent chateaux of the Loire Valley and the Mediterranean resorst of St. Tropez and Monte Carlo are described with the affectionate eye of a man not blind to their blemishes. Combining fine travel writing with diverse quotations from writers contemporary and otherwise, including Ford Madox Ford, Richard Cobb, Henry James and Dumas pere, this book builds up into a comprehensive picture of a country and its people. At once intensely personal and universally appealing it evokes the special unmistakable charm of its subject. 198 pp. Plastic protective covering around D/J. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.).
