Paris and Her Cathedrals
"So infectious is R. Howard Bloch's passion for his subject that even those unable to do the traveling required will find in Paris and Her Cathedrals an inspiring guide to these time-hallowed masterpieces of medieval culture." --Colin Jones, author of Paris and The Great Nation Over the years, R. Howard Bloch has become renowned for the insider tours of Paris that he gives to students abroad. Long sought after by travelers and history buffs for his near-encyclopedic knowledge of French cathedrals, the eminent French literature scholar finally shares his expertise with a wider audience. In Paris and Her Cathedrals, six of the most sublime cathedrals in the penumbra of Paris--Saint-Denis, Notre-Dame, Chartres, Sainte-Chapelle, Amiens, Reims--are illumined in magnificent detail as Bloch, taking us from the High Middle Ages to the devastating fire that set Notre-Dame ablaze in 2019, traces the evolution of each in turn. Written from the premise that "seeing is enhanced by knowing," each chapter is organized along the lines of a walk around and then through the space of the cathedral, such that the actual or virtual visitor feels the rich sweep of the church, "the essence of these architectural wonders" (Antonia Felix). Animating the past with lush evocations of architectural splendor--from flying buttresses and jewel-encrusted shrines to hidden burial grounds and secret chambers--Bloch then contextualizes the cathedrals within the annals of French history. Here thrilling tales of kingly intrigue--as in Saint-Chapelle, where the pious King Louis IX amassed relics, including Christ's crown of thorns--and audacious abbots are interspersed with anecdotes about the meeting of aristocratic and everyday life, culminating in "a rich, colorful narrative that clearly but expertly explains the history and symbolism of some of the world's most magnificent buildings" (Ross King). To be read in preparation for an enlightened visit or merely to open a window upon the High Middle Ages in France, Paris and Her Cathedrals is a "revelation," an "indispensable guide" (Garry Wills) to these awe-inspiring structures. Complete with the author's own photographs, this beautifully illustrated volume vitally enhances our understanding of the history of Paris and its environs.

French Dive
In the fall of 2014, educators Eric and Rixa Freeze moved with their young family to Old Nice, a medieval town-within-a-city on the famed C繫te d'Azur. They'd bought a 700-square-foot dive, an apartment in need of renovation just a couple blocks from the Mediterranean. They were a family with a plan: to live differently. No home in the suburbs with a two-car garage, no bedroom for every child, no 24-hour Walmart. Carefully researched and vividly written, French Dive chronicles the Freeze family's integration into a culture where large families aren't all treated alike. What they find--spearfishing for food, renting their car to strangers, fixing and selling old furniture from the garbage depot--is that a city gives back the more you give to it. Morally complex and unflinching in its analysis of contemporary life and the things that keep human beings apart, Freeze tackles racism, homelessness, art, reality TV, social media, and parenting with wit and humor. Along the way he and his family learn what it means to be a neighbor, a member of a community, and a global citizen, how to treat others with empathy and understanding as they try to carve out a place in this world.

An Inland Voyage
"For will anyone dare to tell me that business is more entertaining than fooling among boats? He must have never seen a boat, or never seen an office, who says so."-Robert Louis Stevenson, An Inland Voyage (1878)An Inland Voyage (1878), by Robert Louis Stevenson, describes a canoe trip through France and Belgium that he took with his friend Sir Walter Grindlay Simpson in 1876. Although he had never been in a canoe before, Stevenson was an excellent traveler and enjoyed every aspect of the adventure. His book describes barges, with "their flower-pots and smoking chimneys," and fishermen, "stupefied with contentment." In addition, the author reflects on the mindlessness of canoeing, with the "ecstatic stupor" it provides, along with wider issues, including the French character and the artist's role in society.

Cocktail Hour Meets ... L'AP?RO
Cocktail Hour Meets ... L'APERO is the third in a series of back-of-the-napkin lifestyle books resulting from quarantining at home during Covid-19. Little did anyone know when authors Jeremy Cooper and Andy Klausner published Cocktail Hour Meets ... A PANDEMIC in July of 2020 and Cocktail Hour Meets ... A PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION in November 2020, that the pandemic would continue well into the Spring of 2021. We may not always know what day it is, but we do know there is always cocktail hour! And along with cocktail hour, this book highlights the French tradition of L'APERO - an early evening get together which features wine (or cocktails), appetizers and, when not isolated at home, time spent with friends. The inspiration for this book comes from Jeremy and Andy reminiscing during the quarantine about past travels that seem so distant, and takes them back to their true loves - food, travel and wine. Cocktail Hour Meets ... L'APERO guides readers through each of the wine regions of France, and includes stories of Jeremy and Andy's past travels, 25 L'APEROs, each highlighting a French wine (and one brandy), and a recipe which pairs well with each beverage. A portion of all sales will be donated to World Central Kitchen - a national nonprofit founded by Chef Jos矇 Andr矇s and his wife Patricia that uses "the power of food to nourish communities and strengthen economies through times of crises and beyond.".

(Not Quite) Mastering the Art of French Living
A Wall Street Journal Bestseller! In the tradition of Peter Mayle's A Year in Provence, let the author of I'll Never Be French introduce you to Brittany a world of color and flavor that most of us only fantasize about. Every year upon arriving in Plobien, the small Breton town where he spends his summers, American writer Mark Greenside picks back up where he left off with his faux-pas-filled Francophile life. Mellowed and humbled, but not daunted (OK, slightly daunted), he faces imminent concerns: What does he cook for a French person? Who has the right-of-way when entering or exiting a roundabout? Where does he pay for a parking ticket? And most dauntingly of all, when can he touch the tomatoes? Despite two decades that have passed since Greenside's snap decision to buy a house in Brittany and begin a bi-continental life, the quirks of French living still manage to confound him. Continuing the journey begun in his 2009 memoir about beginning life in France, (Not Quite) Mastering the Art of French Living details Greenside's daily adventures in his adopted French home, where the simplest tasks are never straightforward but always end in a great story. Through some hits and lots of misses, he learns the rules of engagement, how to get what he needs--which is not necessarily what he thinks he wants--and how to be grateful and thankful when (especially when) he fails, which is more often than he can believe. "This is my world, the Old World that is constantly new to me. I've been coming to France--Brittany--for more than twenty years now, and I'm still trying to master the art of French living. For a guy who likes to think he knows what he's doing, it's been an unexpectedly bumpy ride." Experienced Francophiles and armchair travelers alike will delight in Greenside's exploring the practical and philosophical questions of French life, vividly brought to life by his humor and affection for his community.

Stuck for answers in the States, she embarked on an impulsive journey to France. What she found would redefine femme forever.New York, 2009. Augustine Blaisdell had big dreams of helping women become more visible. So with her application for a Fulbright Grant rejected and her job ending, the passionate feminist happily answered an ad for an apartment exchange in Paris. Unable to speak the language and hardly knowing what she hoped to discover, she arrived in the City of Lights and began tutelage with a friend of the legendary Simone de Beauvoir.Introduced to some of France's leading female thinkers and like-minded ex-pats, Blaisdell discovered herself and seized womanhood along the banks of the Seine. But as she was mapping out what independence truly meant, she was caught off-guard by the rush of a whirlwind Parisian romance...In this heartfelt account of her fresh start in a city renowned for its powerful female force, Blaisdell relates how her leap of faith brought together multiple passions. And in a compelling work of art that celebrates femininity through the eyes of her enlightening voyage, you'll be swept away by beautiful, authentic, and emancipating emotions that will touch your soul.WOMEN ? LA MODE is a deeply personal memoir and a fascinating exploration of the feminist zeitgeist.

Here Today, Gone Tomorrow
Here Today, Gone Tomorrow is a travelogue with a difference. Two retired women set off in a campervan from London to tour Europe. Neither has driven a campervan before, much less had any experience driving on the right.They journey through four countries and cover 4,000 miles, often bewildered by one-way systems and rapid changes of language, yet meeting kindness wherever they go. The women's varied and often bizarre escapades make for entertaining reading from start to finish. They experience being locked in an underground toilet in France, finding distant relatives in Germany quite by chance, and spending a frightening night freedom camping on the Riviera.For those who love to read about the touring experiences of others, and are pining to get out on the open road themselves, it's all here in this true and eccentric account. About the Author: Elaine Blick lived in England for many years and taught school in London. "Although I grew up in New Zealand and had my education here, I now live beside a beach outside of Auckland, which is rather different from London." Now retired, she enjoys travelling and researching the historical novels she writes. This is her eleventh book.

Including such sites as the birthplace of Nostradamus and the ruins of the Marquis de Sade's castle, A Literary Guide to Provence presents a thousand years of history entwined with maps and photos that provide readers on tour with a sense of the historical import of this most beautiful of regions even as they experience it firsthand. Both authors of Proven癟al ancestry and those who came to love and live in Provence are featured in this comprehensive and enchanting picture of the garden place of France. The Riviera enticed Virginia Woolf. Toulon inspired two novels by Georges Sand. Robert Louis Stevenson resided in Hy癡res, as did Edith Wharton. Le Lavandou was Willa Cather's favorite place. F.
