Description (ch)
- Superb interdisciplinary collective work under the direction of Pierre Bressolette
- Max Daumas (Revue de géographie alpine 1987, link included):
"..A beautiful book on the Auvergne Mountains, the reading of which cannot fail to fascinate those interested in this region but
also those concerned with the problems and future of medium-altitude mountains.."
- Jean-Louis Biget (Revue géographique des Pyrénées 1985, link included)
".. Les Monts d'Auvergne constitutes a clear, pleasant-to-read, and solidly documented work. It provides any reader
with a high-quality, easily accessible synthesis of one of the most distinct geographical and human clusters
of the French mountains."
