Excellent- More about Chanel's Riviera: Life, Love and the Struggle for Survival on the Cote d'Azur, 1930-1944
In the spring of 1938, the French Riviera was more concerned with curtseying to the Duchess of Windsor than with the impending war. CHANEL S RIVIERA is a captivating account of the luxury and terror of the 1930s and 1940s on the Cote d'Azur, featuring a sparkling cast of artists, writers, and historical figures.

Few of those who had settled there in the spring of 1938 gave much thought to what was happening in the rest of Europe. It was a life of gold and glamour, far removed from politics or conflict.
CHANEL S RIVIERA is a captivating account of a period that saw some of the deepest extremes of luxury and terror in the whole of the twentieth century.
From Chanel's first summer at her Roquebrune villa La Pausa (in the later years with her German lover) amid the glamour of the pre-war parties and casinos in Antibes, Nice, and Cannes to the horrors of evacuation and the displacement of thousands of families during the Second World War, CHANEL S RIVIERA explores the fascinating world of the Cote d'Azur elite in the 1930s and 1940s.
Enriched with much original research, it is social history that brings the experiences of both rich and poor, protected and persecuted, to vivid life.
