Publisher's Synopsis

A Motor-Flight Through France is a travelogue written by the famous American author Edith Wharton. The book was first published in 1908 and chronicles Wharton's journey through France in a motor car. The book is divided into chapters that describe the various regions of France that Wharton visited, including Normandy, Brittany, the Loire Valley, and the French Alps. Wharton's writing is rich and descriptive, and she provides vivid accounts of the landscapes, architecture, and people she encountered on her journey. She also shares her observations on French culture and society, as well as her own experiences as a woman traveling alone in a foreign country. Throughout the book, Wharton's love of France and its people shines through, and she portrays the country in a romantic and nostalgic light. The book is a fascinating glimpse into France at the turn of the 20th century and is a must-read for anyone interested in travel writing, French culture, or the works of Edith Wharton.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
