Cadogan Guide to Normandy
by Clare Hargreaves

From the Cadogan Guides series.

Cadogan's new guide to Normandy is a welcome addition to the landmark France series. Published to coincide with the 60th anniversary of the D-Day landings, this guide provides detailed and fascinating insight into the region's culture--including its glittering contribution of Monet, Corneille, and Gide--and history, Cadogan proves to be an engaging and informative companion.

From the magical otherworldly Mont-St-Michel to the moving beaches of the D-Day landings; the coastal glamor of Honfleur and Deauville to the breathtaking workmanship of the Bayeux Tapestry, Normandy is a rich and complex landscape. Lush with orchards and horsey meadows, it is home to a fair proportion of France's superlative sights, including Monet's garden at Giverny and the stunning modern bridges over the Seine estuary. Cadogan offers fresh insight to these well-known destinations and then recommends the best places to try Normandy's fine cuisine: its famous cheeses, Isigny butter and excellent seafood, all washed down with a slug of France's most densely flavored brandy, the famous Calvados.

"Easy on the eyes and in the hands, these guides boast a wealth of information in well-ordered pages; the texts are written with humor and display a definite, enticing personal touch. "
