Produktbeschreibung
This is a book of French words and expressions, interspersed with anecdotes, illustrations and photos. It is intended as a coffee-table book; one that hopefully might have the reader spilling their coffee over, and thus spare themselves the prospect of tackling the section on French grammar and, indeed, the extensive lists of expressions and vocabulary in the appendices. Part 8 of the book is devoted to George Voice, the oldest brother of the author's father, who was killed during the First World War at the age of 22. He is buried in the British Cemetery at Honnechy in Northern France. What is most important, as the reader probably realises, is that they have purchased and possess their personal copy of this book to enjoy.
