US Books > Reference > General

Cadogan brings travelers a brand new regional guide from expert authors Dana Facaros and Michael Pauls, who live in France themselves. The Languedoc-Roussillon region boasts beautiful and diverse landscapes, from miles of beaches and scorched limestone to lush olive groves, and is home to the spectacular walled town of Carcasonne, one of France's most famous national monuments and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Cadogan's comprehensive and entertaining guide to this wonderful region takes readers to the seaside towns of Sete, Maguelone, and Agde, the fabled Roman aqueduct of the Pont du Gard in Nimes, and the lively bars and clubs of Montpellier. The region is a gourmet's dream, and no trip would be complete without indulging in the distinctive cuisine and innovative wines of the region. The authors pick out the most charming auberges and extravagant restaurants in which to do just that.
