IN FRANCE

by Marguerite Clement ‧ RELEASE DATE: N/A

A rosy view of the land of perfumes, cheeses and joies de vivre surveys France through its history and across the present. Topics discussed are France's geography and climate, her course from Roman times to World War II, the old Paris and the new; family life; youth; general activity in the fields of agriculture, industry, government and fashion; holidays, architecture, the countryside, and cathedrals. Companionably written and very prettily illustrated with drawings by William Pene du Bois, this should be a good bon voyage gift or pleasure for the interested stay-at-homes.
