This is a guide to Normandy and northwestern France, covering the ports of Cherbourg, Le Havre, Boulogne, Calais and Dunkirk. Although a largely industrial area, this book reveals its rural side: old manor houses, apple orchards, and waterways rich in trout and eel. It shows that this is a region not just to travel through but one to relax in, with its museums, restaurants serving traditional food, sandy beaches and fishing ports that were captured in many Impressionist paintings.
