Best book on Provence

This is perhaps the most complete book on Provence I have come across. It offers excellent pictures and detailed history of all the major and surrounding areas which constitute Provence. The area, steeped in history, not least of which the Roman Empire, is eloquently portrayed in this book and is sure to indulge any reader on the delights that are to be found in Provence.

Provence Art Architecture Landscape

I found the book very useful in preparing for a vacation in Provence. It provides more information than most standard guide books, and a visual reference to planning where to spend our time. The book includes handy maps, floor plans of historic building, historical context and information about the current ecology, economy and populations. Many wonderful photographs!
