Frommer's Easyguide to France 2014
by Margie Rynn, Lily Heise, and Tristan Rutherford
Published 1 January 2013
Selling for a lower price than any similar guidebook, and deliberately limited to a short 256 pages, this EasyGuide is an exercise in creating easily-absorbed travel information. It emphasizes the authentic experiences in each destination:the most important attractions, the classic method of approaching a particular destination; the best choices for accommodations and meals; the best ways to maximize the enjoyment of your stay. Because it is "quick to read, light to carry", it is called an "EasyGuide", and reflects Arthur Frommer's lifetime of experience in presenting clear and concise travel advice.

Frommer's Easyguide to France 2015
by Margie Rynn, Lily Heise, Tristan Rutherford, Kathryn Tomasetti, and Mary Novakovich
Published 1 January 2014
Five long-time residents of France have here combined their talents to compress the highlights of that nation into one, 256-page volume: Paris, Normandy, The Loire Valley, Provence and the French Riviera. Since most visitors confine their trips to three-or-so of these five areas, and rarely visit other lesser parts of France, this compact book will be regarded as just the right thing, a fortunate purchase. Our authors are French enthusiasts, and share Thomas Jefferson's belief that "Every man has two countries, his own and France".
A resident of Paris for over thirteen years, Margie Rynn calls her adopted city "the pulsing heart of the French nation...worthy of all the superlatives that have been heaped upon it for centuries". It is also a place that every North American is determined to visit at some point in their lives, and that intense yearning has made this Easy Guide a massive best-seller in its premier edition, that has now been freshly revised for 2015. It contains new discoveries and adventures, all well compressed into 256 highly readable pages.
Frommer's Easyguide to France 2016
by Lily Heise, Mary Novakovich, Margie Rynn, Tristan Rutherford, and Kathryn Tomasetti
Published 16 November 2015
It was Thomas Jefferson who reputedly said that "every man has two countries, his own and France". The five authors of our Easy Guide to that country (each dealing with the area of their specialty) obviously share Mr. Jefferson's viewpoint, so heartfelt and positive is their reaction to the major highlights of France and the single best options for lodgings, meals, sightseeing, shopping, and more. Like all of Frommer's guides, the emphasis here is on preferences, the strong opinions of each author, the factually-based recommendations they make, in a 288-page easy-to-use book that does not overwhelm with unnecessary locations, but with Paris, Normandy, the Loire Valley, Provence and the French Riviera.
