Product Description A beautifully photographed romantic book about French style and cultureand making a new home in Provence. In 1999, Vicki Archer, with her husband and three children, made a lifelong dream a reality when she bought a seventeenth-century property in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence. She spent three years lovingly restoring the farmhouse, bringing back to life the abandoned apple and pear orchards, and planting an olive grove of more than two thousand trees. In My French Life, Vicki shares an insiders view of life in Francefrom its landscapes, delicious food, and scents to its charming people. And she offers an intimate portrait of what its like to adopt a new home on the other side of the globe. Its a personal tale of taking risks, facing challenges, and the joyous experience of falling in love with all things French. With lavish four-color photography that captures the essence of French style, My French Life is a book to cherish.

Love this book. April 15, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Opened it, loved all the photos, read most of it right away. It is an engaging book with real flavor. The author gives an account of raising a family in France, it's romance and the draw of this beautiful country. This will be a book I linger through again.

This book is so inspiring, I sighned up to travel to Provence in June! Amazing layout and great read, we are left appreciating the French way of life and most of all it's people. Congratulations to Vicki on a work well done.
My French Life, like taking a vacation to France! March 29, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Bought this on an impulse. So glad I did. The photographs are excellent. It has a most unusual cover as well. A very pretty hardback coffee table book. If you enjoy reading about all things French, you will enjoy this book.
