The Regions of France: A Reference Guide to History and Culture

This is the one reference work that French teachers, students, and librarians need for student assignments on the regions of France. A one-stop, easy-to-use reference guide organized by region, it offers in-depth and comprehensive coverage of the cultural life (including cuisine and recipes), customs, history, politics, and the economy of each region. There is no other reference work like it in either English or French. It makes the 22 regions of France accessible to students and others interested in modern and contemporary France and helps them to understand the complexities of France today and the role of the various regions in the nation
