  Divided into 16 regional sections, this illustrated guide to France reflects the country's history, culture, architecture, gastronomy, and natural and man-made phenomena, as well as the charm and beauty of an isolated hill-village or sunlit coastline. Maps are provided by Institut Geographique National (IGN), France's National Mapping Agency. Particular features of a region are highlighted, such as the Roman influence in Provence or the Beaujolais vineyards, and side panels provide details about historical figures, local food, folklore and festivities.
