“This non-fiction collection spans nearly 40 years and covers a wide range of subjects. The earliest titles, from the mid-1970s, are parenting and children’s education books including What’s Happening to Me?: A Guide to Puberty (1975) and Where Did I Come From? (1977). Through the 1980s, the focus shifted to humor with titles like Thirsty Work (1983) and The Honeymoon Book (1984).”
The 1990s onward brought Provence-related non-fiction including Provence A-Z (1993), Provence from the Air (1994), and A Dog’s Life (1995). Later titles like French Lessons / Bon Appetit (2001), Confessions of a French Baker (2005), and Provence in Ten Easy Lessons (2014) continue the focus on French food and culture.
