Synopsis
A 7 1/2" by 11", lay-flat bound, 4-color, glossy photo and text travel book about 11 of the best known resorts in five countries in the Alps. The book describes activities, events, locations, dining and amenities in both winter and summer in all of the resorts, along with a short section of history on each. It is not a guide book, but rather a book to tell people what they can find in these resorts if they're thinking about going, or if they want a souvenir of a place where they've been. Over 200 full-color photos.
