"Harvey Levenstein's Seductive Journey explains why so many Americans have visited France and tells the colorful story of what they did when they got there. From Fragonard to foie gras, the result is a highly entertaining examination of the transformation of American attitudes toward French food, sex, and culture, as well as an absorbing exploration of changing notions of class, gender, race, and nationality."--BOOK JACKET.
