From the Author
When i first published this book in 1994 i never anticipated
how popular it would become. A second edition followed in 2001 , this
itself was updated and expanded to 300 pages in november 2005!. My primary
aim was for the book to be used by owners of property in France to enable
them to liase with architects , builders and local artisans. From the
feedback received i know many of you also use it when shopping at the local
bricolage stores for your DIY projects. I was particularly pleased when the
authors of the excellent 2004 book "How to renovate a House in France" not
only recommended this dictionary but also asked permission to use small
excerpts from it. A more recent review stated "Worth its weight in gold ,
this 300 page dictionary is a must for a successful project". I do hope you
will find it as useful as many thousands of others have. A.S.L
