A work which follows in the footsteps of the Belle Époque of seaside holidays. But, a century later, the rediscovery of sea bathing, on our doorstep, is becoming current news, in the midst of the crisis of great exotic trips.
Richly illustrated with old engravings, this guide represents a Tour de France of yesteryear and today. Short easy-to-consult chapters, collected along the main lines of the Parisian railway lines (North, Orléans, Midi, Lyon) and commented by the clever pen of Françoise Gall
