4.0 out of 5 stars
Lively descriptions of villages, chateaux, and wine!!!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Touring In Wine Country: Loire (Paperback)
Hugh Johnson has a knack for giving very down to earth descriptions of the small villages, and the various chateaux to visit if you're into wine. He also lets you know the quaint places to stay in hidden away places, and where to stay away from so you can enjoy your experience in the wine country

a highly concise and informative guide,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Touring In Wine Country: Loire (Paperback)
I am using this book to plan an upcoming trip, so I haven't had a chance to check the book's recommendations, but I have been to this region before.I have purchased 4 or 5 other books to research the Loire Valley and this is the most useful. It doesn't contain much information about the chateaux in the region (generally repeated in all the other books). What it does have is some really useful photographs that help to give a sense of what the different towns are like, detailed and nuanced recommendations of places to stay and places to eat, and a guide to a few hundred or so vineyards. I strongly recommend this book to anyone at all interested in wine, who also wants information about some of the towns and villages too small to end up in the regular tourist guides. |
