The Rough Guide to the Pyrenees by Marc Dubin
This is " the ultimate handbook to the region"; no other guidebook covers so much ground. Coverage sweeps both sides of the range from the Atlantic to the Mediterranean, taking in the major towns of Biarritz, reflecting its return to luxury tourism,San Sebastian, Pamplona, Perpignan, as well as Andorra. Descriptions of prehistoric cave art, Romanesque and Roman architecture as well as historical and cultural commentary from the different perspectives of the Spanish, Spanish/Catalan, French and Andorran peoples. Engaging, informative and graphic accounts of skiing, climbing, walking, hiking, river rafting and parapenting, with updates of changes in the natural and man-made landscape.
Marc Dubin first went to the Pyrenees in 1986 - and thigh-deep in snowmelt, discovered why most facilities are shut in May. Since then he has returned several times to both sides of the range, on one visit toting a 23-kilo pack through the mountains in the course of researching a hiking guide to Spain.
