Review
France comes alive in the pages of this book, helping transform the tourist into a traveller... Cole transports the reader back through France's long and tumultuous history in a manner, which keeps one engrossed in the unfolding tale... This is the book for any potential traveller... --Small Press
Undoubtedly the best way to prepare for a trip to France is to bone up on some history. 'The Traveller's History of France' by Robert Cole is concise and gives the essential facts in a very readable form. --Independent
This little book is a very good idea indeed, a running commentary on the complexities, triumphs and tragedies of French history from the Lascaux Caves to the Pompidou centre. A must for tourists who want to know what happened where. --Birmingham Post
