Industry Reviews LeFavour, a professional chef, has produced a handsome and terrifically useful guide for anyone considering seeing France on foot. France has 110,000 miles of well-maintained walking paths that cross both public and private lands and a detailed system of walking maps for navigating them. This is not an easy guide to tuck into your backpack, but it provides loads of information: the best maps for walkers, different kinds of accommodations, and necessary equipment. LeFavour has obviously walked many leisurely miles in France, soaking up the scenery and ending each day in a comfortable bed (from cottage to ch?teau) after a delicious meal. He intersperses his own entertaining walking experiences with planning advice. The photographs are beautiful. Essential for travel collections. Linda M.
