Provence A-Z: A Francophile’s Essential Handbook Audiobook (Free)

Summary:

An indispensable, richly informative, and usually entertaining sourcebook on Provence by the writer that has made the spot his own.

Though organized from A to Z, this is hardly a conventional work of reference. It is rather an array of those aspects of Provence that Peter Mayle in nearly twenty years there’s found to be the many interesting, interested, delicious, or downright fun.

He writes approximately subjects as diverse as structures, expatriates, scorpions, the Provençal character, legends, lavender, linguistic oddities, the roots of “La Marseillaise,” wild boars and Frenchwinds. And, of course, he writes about drink and food.

Provence A-Z is a pleasure for Peter Mayle’s ever-growing viewers and these unabridged choices are the ideal complement to any guidebook on Provence, or, for example, France.
