THE BEST EDITION WITH 64 COLOUR PLATES, the plates are by a number of different artists and supply the reader with a variety of artistic styles. The text addresses an equally wide variety of subjects; rural life, the geography with its rivers, mountains, plains and fields, the architecture, city life, Paris and religion, etc. The very beautiful combination of art and writing make this a truly wonderful entry in Adam and Charles Black's series of illustrated travel books.
