The Happy Wanderer

Rarely has it been as essential to carefully research destinations before booking. That includes a journey to La Belle France! So many impressions; so many memorable experiences. In his second book of comprehensive travel impressions, Australian journalist, Les Thompson, digs deeply into the reasons why people find France so appealing and enchanting. For 14 years Les took a close look at travel destinations and at the written and oral history of various countries. He then drew his own conclusions, checked his findings against several credible historical references and with a happy wanderer's sense of humour, he now adds France to his series of informative and entertaining travel books from his journal of fascinating experiences.
