Caen, history and rebirth
At last a book about Caen and its history: a stroll through the streets of a town that above all suf- fered in the 20th Century, bearing the weight of a momentous drama. The author makes a historical study of the town with its shops, its residential areas, its monuments and its streets, and tells the story of the rebirth of the various quarters, thereby offering the reader an original, lively and documented walk through the streets and round the squares. With numerous anecdotes and historical accounts, he shares his attachment to his roots and recalls what Caen was and what it has become, from medieval times to today.
