Two journeys in search of the Causses, the high limestone tablelands of southern France, form this travel book. Betham-Edwards travels from Le Puy to Mende, climbs to the top of the roof, visits Rodez and Aurillac, then returns through the Morvan and down the Rhône by Avignon and Orange to Le Vigan and Nant, describing the peasants and inns she meets.
