ENTRE DEUX RIVIERES (Between Two Rivers) by Tom King

[Tomas King]

While living in the south west of France a few years ago I published an illustrated book of my travels in the region. It was published in English but later taken up by a French publisher who produced it in French. I ran out of the English version a long time ago and until recently had assumed the French was no longer available. However, after a number of enquires here in Ireland about the book I discovered that the French version is still available for sale on-line direct from the publisher.

 The book contains 96 pages with 90 watercolour illustrations in full colour and 8 black and white, most of which are taken from my sketchbook and all done en plein air. It was originally produced in a smaller hand-made version as a birthday gift for my daughter in Australia by way of introducing her to the area where we lived and later extended.  The text, in French, describes the experiences of my wife and I going to live in a foreign country, opening a gallery and trying to deal with the problems of living in a different culture. It also describes the beautiful area where we lived, its history and some of the wonderful people we met. It measures 26.5cm x 12.5cm.
