An insider's tour of France's most beloved and beautiful villages
uncovers the country's hidden treasures. The Best Loved Villages of
France brings the reader on a tour of forty-four of the country's
most treasured destinations. Always picturesque, but often
well-kept secrets, the book offers insight into village life and
local history. Take a tour of a crumbling medieval fortress with
the mayor of Lavardin or peruse the maritime objects found at sea
by a mustached fisherman in Saint-Suliac. Stroll along the coast of
the Wissant bay windsurfer's paradise or promenade through the
manicured grounds of Vaux-le-Vicomte. Watch the sunrise over the
fairy-tale castle in Montsoreau or enjoy a fresh langoustine dinner
in Piana, Corsica. This book offers an illustrated tour around all
twenty-two regions of France, from Provence and the Alps, to
Normandy and the Loire. Aerial and intimate photographs invite the
reader to explore these splendid locales, while the descriptions,
anecdotes, and interviews with local village-dwellers plunge you
into the individual history and character of France's diverse
regions. The villages featured in the book were selected in a
popular vote by the French public and they represent an authentic
journey into the heart of France.
