Sinossi

The definitive guide to one of France's least explored and most fascinating regions, covering all the towns and historic cities such as Toulouse and Montpellier, as well as the full extent of the changing landscape, from mountain backroads to Mediterranean beaches. The book includes expert descriptions of all the sights, including the walled city of Carcassonne and the Nîmes coliseum, and detailed and honest reviews of the best places to stay, eat and drink. All the accounts include lively, informed discussion of the rich history and cultural diversity of this part of France, written in a candid, unpretentious style.
