Produktbeschreibung

A fascinating and richly illustrated guide to the French town of Mont Saint Michel."e;My intention in writing this little book has been to describe Mont St. Michel, omitting nothing that will give the reader help to understand and appreciate to the full the marvel of its beauty.It should be borne in mind, however, that Mont St. Michel, which is one of the great masterpieces of French architecture, is also an historical foundation and a beacon of the Catholic faith. And so I have felt it incumbent upon me to give the reader a short sketch of the twelve centuries of its history before telling him about the various buildings which have made it celebrated all the world over.The very stones of which it is built would lose their meaning, were I to describe it without an attempt to win something of the spirit of the monks of genius, who set those stones together for the glory of their Archangel, Saint Michael."e; - From the Author's Introduction
