Newspaper Review by Barbara Boatright:
Savoir-Flair,
211 Tips for Enjoying France and the French



Barbara Boatright, in the San Antonio Express-News:

One thing you'll need to do before you arrive in France, or maybe even before you leave home, is to get a copy of Savoir-Flair!


Ms. Boatright's review:

There are language problems -- some words are closely related and if used wrongly can mean something altogether different than what you meant to say. Make sure you know the full name and address of your hotel or your cab driver may take you to the wrong one -- some hotels have the same name. Be sure to read the chapter on bathrooms -- a lot of them are unisex.

The author has filled this book with all sorts of things that can go wrong if you're not in the know.
