Category : Architecture

Pages : 520
Book Description
Excerpt from The Lake of Geneva Apparently no book in English deals - from the point of view of the present-day traveller - with the Lake of Geneva as a whole. One work will concern itself with the Swiss side and another with the shores of Savoy, the two countries being regarded as unassimilable. Modern facilities in travelling have made the two shores one, and, moreover, the history of the district can hardly be appreciated unless it be considered as a whole. I have included two places - Abondance and Gruyeres which - are not on Lac Leman because few who come to the Lake fail to visit these ancient towns, since it is from the Lake that they are both most conveniently reached. I am indebted to the management of the Etablissement des Bains at Evian for access to a library of over two hundred volumes dealing exclusively with the Lake and with Savoy. Extensive use has been made of the admirable Dictionnaire Historique du Canton de Vaud, the publication of which has just been completed.
