Brittany (Philip's Travel Guides)

By Keith Spence

This distinctive French region of Brittany has its own language and traditions and is famed for its coastal scenery and seafood. It also boasts a wealth of prehistoric monuments and its own style of ecclesiastical architecture, including the unique parish closes of Finistere. Many of its medieval towns are well preserved and some, such as St Malo, have impressive chateaux.

Customer Reviews

Readable, well-organized text and spectacular photography.

This is a dangerous book for anyone who doesn't have the time and money to travel to Brittany--after perusing it, you won't be able to resist. The excellent text and marvellous photographs were a great help to us in planning our too-short, 10-day visit to that very special place.
