5.0 out of 5 stars
So much better than the movie,
This review is from: Caravan to Vaccares (Audio Cassette)
This book is an excellent, fast paced and reads like it was meant to be a movie script. How unfortunate the movie makers ignored the book. A tale of gypsies, smugglers and foreign scientists, with enough twists and turns to keep the reader occupied. Overall an excellent read, I give the full five stars.

Romance, mystery and intrigue in the Sud de France,
This review is from: Caravan to Vaccares (Paperback)
I first read the book while in high school in Canada circa 1970. I was captivated by the story, by Les Baux de Provence, and by the Camargue. In 2007 I followed the path of the book, visited all of these beautiful story locales, and filmed and photographed them. The book descriptions are very accurate. The excellent and plausible story unfolds much as a Russian Easter egg. The dialogue is very clever. As I photographed in Les Baux, I showed my copy of the book to the Tourist Associates at the entrance to the Chateau premesis and to the Desk Clerks at the L'Oustau de Baumanière. They were happily astonished! This book is a true delight. Still looking for my Cecile, though!
