Fair Stood the Wind for France

Young Dominic de Bonhomie departed university with neither degree nor prospect. Wondering what it meant to have truly lived, he was drawn to less trodden paths to seek adventure and connections.ODriven by his maternal blood he chose France for his next stomping ground. This account of travel on foot covers the first portion of his French saga. Encountering the unexpected and the delightful, it is a charmed tale of vim exploration through Normandy and Brittany.From pastoral nights under the stars to the cosy sanctuary of a monastery, Dominic weaves his prose as if a tapestry whose threads are visual and sensual impressions, portraits of colourful characters, and the fables of history which come to his attention as he walks through the land.
