Miltoun travels the Loire from the Orléanais through Blois, Amboise, Chenonceaux, Tours and Chinon, describing each château and the royal and aristocratic stories attached to it, from Catherine de’ Medici’s quarrel with Diane de Poitiers to the courts of Francis I. Blanche McManus’s drawings, made on the spot, illustrated the original.
A leisurely, anecdotal companion for anyone dreaming of the Loire. Download the free EPUB.
