"Discover the artists, writers, actors, and politicians who frequented the world's most desired destination during its golden age. In 21 vivid chapters, Baxter presents the iconic figures indelibly linked to the South of France--artist Henri Matisse, who was inspired by the Riviera's color and light; F. Scott Fitzgerald, whose Riviera hosts inspired Tender is the Night; Coco Chanel, whose Saint-Tropez tan became an international fashion trend; and many more. Baxter takes readers into the cars and casinos of Monte Carlo, to the Cannes Film Festival, to the villa where Picasso and Cocteau smoked opium, and to the hotel where Joseph Kennedy had an affair with Marlene Dietrich. Then maps and listings show travelers how these luminaries celebrated life and made art in paradise"--
