Part journal, part practical guide, this book documents the lifestyles of two French country households. In a practical section which is organized month-by-month, the authors offer recipes, from duck pate and onion tart to English muffins, and seasonal regimens for housekeeping and the garden.
A very beautiful pictorial book. The pictures make you want to be there. There are recipes in the back of the book. The book is set in Gascony. And told month by month.
