Perfume from Provence by Winifred Fortescue

Actress Winifred Fortescue and husband left England for a stone house amid olive groves in the hills above Nice. As they extended the house, they were bewitched by the landscape and by the warm-hearted and wily Provencals. Winifreds witty account - a best-seller when it was first published in 1935 - is an enchanting read.
Born in 1888, Winifred Fortescue gave up her career on the stage after marriage and founded a successful fashion and interior design business. She later began writing articles for The Times and Punch, and inaugurated a woman's page for The Morning Post. She wrote seven books, of which Perfume from Provence was the first.
