In part an evocation of the Seine's changing landscapes and rural beauty, this is also an account of towns and cities--Troyes, Rouen, Paris--and their relationship with the river. Looking at writers and painters as well as historic figures who have left their mark on the Seine, Gibbings presents an affectionate picture of this great river and the people who live and work on its banks.
