Four great rivers, the Dordogne, Lot, Garonne and Tarn, rush down from their sources to bring life to this lush, rural corner of France. Since mankind's first art was painted on the caves of Perigord, this region has been rich in life's graces. Its pleasures range from spectacularly carved Romanesque churches and towering chateaux, to mysterious emblems etched ten thousand years ago, to a dinner of foie gras and confits washed down with a fine Bordeaux.
This guide offers practical travel advice, over 700 hand-picked places to stay, over 500 restaurants, bars and cafes, wine routes, vintages and chateau visits, as well as the best local markets and food shopping.

Dana Facaros and Michael Pauls are European experts. They have lived in France and Italy and have now settled in the south of France . They are the authors of four French regional Cadogan guides and are co-authors of the country guide to France, and have written the entire Cadogan Italy series.
Set in a privileged, fertile valley on the river Isle, Perigueux, the capital of the Dordogne département is a cheerful city of 35,000 who produce and market truffles, foie gras and fat strawberries, and print all the postage stamps in France.
