Description from the seller

Exciting illustrated edition of this work, belonging to the great tradition of Michelin tourist and road guides, designed to accompany travelers in a France where the automobile progressively transforms travel practices, tourism, and the discovery of territories -

This work pairs the exploration of the Pyrenees with that of the Côte d'Argent, offering a vision that is practical, geographic, tourist, and cultural at once, of regions particularly sought after by travelers of the interwar period -

The Pyrenees appear here as a vast space of mountains, valleys, spa towns, cities and natural sites, while the Côte d’Argent evokes the Atlantic coastline, its beaches, seaside resorts, forested landscapes and the itineraries that connect the various places of interest -

Michelin - The Pyrenees The Côte d’Argent - 1928/1929 - Michelin & Co., Clermont-Ferrand -
