Dorothy Menpes writes and her father Mortimer paints their way round Brittany: the sardine fleet coming home to Douarnenez, Rochefort-en-Terre, Vitré, Vannes, Quimper, Saint-Brieuc, Paimpol and Guingamp. Fishing, markets, costumes, religious festivals and the hard lives of Breton women and seafarers fill the chapters.
A gentle Edwardian portrait of Breton life, for anyone who has walked those granite streets or means to. Download the free EPUB.
