Description

A Little Tour in France is a book of travel writing by American writer Henry James. Originally published under the title En Province in 1883-1884 as a serial in The Atlantic Monthly, the book recounts a six-week tour James made of many provincial towns in France, including Tours, Bourges, Nantes, Toulouse, Arles and several others.

The first book publication was in 1884. A second, extensively revised edition was published in 1900.

Henry James gives the idea for the book in the first paragraph of the first installment of the original magazine serial: "France may be Paris, but Paris is not France." He conceived the book as a description of and even homage to the provinces.

James had tried living in Paris before settling in London in 1876.

He returned to France in 1882 to discover more of French provincial life than he had previously been able to see. (Wikipdia)
