The first book in the best-selling Mill of the Flea series, relating the often farcical and always entertaining adventures of the author and his wife as they attempt to make a new life in rural France. Totally unlike any other book in the genre.
In this hilarious collection of cautionary tales and anecdotes, George East discusses all the delights and drawbacks of finding, buying and restoring French property.
Significantly subtitled 'A Year in Purgatory', Home & Dry in France follows the initial adventures of our innocents abroad en route to their 18th-century water mill in the heart of the magical Cotentin peninsula.
If you've ever dreamed of the delights of owning a picturesque property across the channel, you'll find this book required reading.
If you are an armchair adventurer and just after a rattling good read, your search is over...
