5.0 out of 5 stars
Great Intro to France for Keen Teen,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Travel + Leisure's Unexpected France (Travel + Leisure Unexpected) (Travel + Leisure Unexpected) (Hardcover)
I bought this book for my daughter as an introduction to France: it's landscape, culture, food and language because she is taking up French at high school. It's a great mix of pictures, maps and written information. There's plenty of info for the traveler too. Too many of these type of books are too specific to one region; concentrate only on one aspect of France (eg food) or are completely travel oriented - all of which are not needed for a teen wanting to know a general overview (with plenty of in dept info if it's needed).

More should have been put into the printing.,
By Lily White (Illinois) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Travel + Leisure's Unexpected France (Travel + Leisure Unexpected) (Travel + Leisure Unexpected) (Hardcover)
This is the sort of book that I love. Vignettes of things not alwaysfound in other, more typical, travel books. Out of the way places with photos. But there is something wrong with the printing. And I'm not sure that I know exactly what it is. Either the coloring on the photos is too harsh or the type isn't quite right, or maybe even the paper is wrong. I really don't know. But it appears that, because there is an Unexpected Italy, they might be making a series of books, I would hope that they make these corrections to make the books even more appealing. It is not an attempt to dissuade people from purchasing the books. |
