L'autore:
Andrew Gumbel was born in a small corner of that great expanse, the London suburbs. Having fallen in love with London at the tender age of 10, he has been trying to make sense of it ever since. A journalist and travel writer, he has spent lengthy periods abroad as a foreign correspondent for The Guardian and The Independent. He currently resides in Los Angeles and is the author of Cadogan's London guide.
Dana Facaros and Michael Pauls are passionate about Europe and have written over 30 books for Cadogan, including several in the France series. They have lived all over Europe, but are currently settled in an idyllic farmhouse surrounded by vineyards in the Lot Valley, France.
