A region steeped in fable and myth, Provence can accurately be called one of the cultural crossroads of European history. A source of inspiration to artists, poets and troubadours it is also an enviable refuge for the wealthy and fashionable.

Writer Nicholas Woodsworth married into a Provençal family and has lived in the region for decades. He lovingly and carefully notes every facet and detail of life in Provence and provides a refreshing antidote to the rosé and romantic view of it being a perennially sunny destination for tourists.

The real Provençaux have always lived a hard life close to the land and the rhythms of the seasons. It is in the revelation of these lives that the truths of the real Provence are to be found.
