Bonjour à tout le monde et année!

I am announcing my first book has been published on Amazon entiled A Long Look Back:A Sentimental Journey of an American Growing up in France.  Readers will find an interesting and easy read with an enjoyable portrayal of the author’s life in France as a young boy in the 1950’s and 1960’s. It is a perspective that is often combined with beautiful family meals and always with delicious wines. My passion and deep love for France is made undeniably clear. .Readers will be signing on to an entertaining, oftentimes humorous, sentimental journey set first in a small village along the rugged and beautiful Emerald Coast of Brittany in the western part of France then we speed up (of course) to Paris and Neuilly s/Seine, where the story really first started. I describe family life In Neuilly s/S, going to school in the 16th, I talk about landmarks that are familiar to expats such as the American Hospital in Neuilly. the beautiful American Cathedras on Av. George V, sailing frigattes in the Jardin du Luxenbourg and many others. Then I conclude with a collections of unique travel and food experiences as I meanders down from Lyon (culinary ground-zero for France) and evntually reaching the Côte d’Azur. A separate section is devoted to a selection of a few persnal and delicious, traditional French recipes à la cuisine de grand-mère,” because how can one talk or write about France without fully appreciating and immersing oneself, in its cuisine. A Long, Look Back is an undeniably wonderful, warm-hearted, tender journey into a France of yesteryear. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BQGJ6YNQ. in paperback, 320 pages.

Merci à tous.
