At Home In France: Eating and Entertaining with the French

Christopher Petkanas

Sterling, 2000

Delicious and Insightful
No need to buy a ticket to France.....this book takes you there in ways only MFK Fisher and possibly Richard Olney managed. I loved it and continue to mine its rich vein of recipes. It seems extraordinary that an American could so truly and sensitively capture the culture of France.

Private Houses of Paris: The "Hotels Particuliers" Revealed
I'm an interior designer and this is my favorite book for inspiration. I have almost every significant book on the topic of decorating. This book is extremely detail oriented and it is truly of the purist French design. It is not America's idea of French flea market decorating as it is a reflection of an author who truly had amazing connections to enter these fabulous homes. It is definitely ...

French Chateau: Life Style Tradition

5 reviews
Christiane De Nicolay-Mazery, Jean-Bernard Naudin

Thames & Hudson, 1991

A life to dream of
If you love French history, art, decoration and life style; if you have ever dreamed of living in a beautiful French chateau, you must get this book. Each time I open this book I am enchanted. What makes this book especially interesting is that people still live in these chateaus, these dreamscapes of tall Mansart roofs, formal French gardens and rooms filled with 18th century furniture. Forget ...

Monet's Table: The Cooking Journals of Claude Monet

Claire Joyes

Simon & Schuster, 2006

A Cook's Paradise.
As a lover of the Impressionist movement, I felt compelled to make the pilgrimage to the house of Claude Monet located a few miles north of Paris in the small town of Giverny, Normandy. Monet's refuge is a shrine of the art world renowned for its beautiful and expansive garden filled with flowers, trees, a lake and its famous bridge. When I entered Monet's home, the dining room made a strong ...

In the Footsteps of Agatha Christie

Francois Riviere, Jean-Bernard Naudin

Trafalgar Square Publishing, 1997

An opportunity to return to Christie's time and place.
Beginning with text and photograph headers presented in the old manual typewriter fonts, Francois Riviere successfully transports her readers back to the Devon countryside of Agatha Christie's childhood. Early family pictures are interspersed with gorgeous color photos of the south of England, each one representing an event or memory which provided Christie with the germ of her intricate ...

This is a beautifully photographed book and a great adjunct to anyone who has, or is presently reading Proust, or just interested in the Belle Epoque or reading Edith Wharton etc.

Cezanne and the Provencal Table
Jean-Bernard Naudin

Clarkson Potter, 1995

Paul Cezanne, perhaps more than any Impressionist, felt an attachment to his birthplace that would endure throughout his lifetime. From the farmhouse where he was raised at Jas de Bouffan to his final home at Lauves, his native region of Provence would provide both the creative and physical sustenance necessary to fuel his unique artistic vision. In a letter, Cezanne once wrote of Provence, "When you are born there, you're done for. Nothing else ...

The Finest Houses Of Paris

3 reviews
Christiane de Nicolay-Mazery

Vendome Press

Le Beau Monde
Though the title under which this book was released in France "Visite Prive" is perhaps more telling and appropiate for this volume, the homes included are no doubt among the finest to be found in that wonderful city. Most notably, the Rothschild's Hotel Lambert, is probably one of the finest homes to be found anywhere in the world. Truly a house fit for royalty for these kings of banking and ...
