Brittany a land apart of sea and stone ritual
Brittany in western France is a land shaped by the sea and a strong Celtic heritage. The coast and interior are described from its isolation, farming life, stone farmhouses, coifs, outdoor wash pools, and the vivid Pardons and Fetes Dieux. Megalithic Carnac fields and legends of St Cornely mingle with a pious, industrious peasantry.
