France, 1001 Sights : An Archaeological and Historical Guide

France is one of the world's leading tourist countries and this book highlights some of the country's most unique and intriguing sites and monuments.

The third in the '1001 Sights' series, this book follows the success of 'Spain: 1001 Sights' and 'Portugal: 1001 Sights'.

This is the only guidebook to France with such in-depth historical and archaeological information and precise details of locations and their historical background.

Part one of the book gives readers a summary of the archaeological phases of early France (1000 AD) while part two introduces the regions of the country and details exact locations of archaeological monuments, their composition and their condition.

Richly illustrated with numerous black and white and colour photos.

The book provides insight into 'undiscovered' sites, often not found in other guidebooks.
