Collection histoires des villes #1

Part of Éditions Le Téméraire's "Collection Histoires des Villes" series, this 1992 volume brings the French city of Roubaix to life through the work of C. Lemaire and O. Mangin. The cover sets the tone beautifully, showcasing a grand, castle-like industrial building — complete with round towers and a tall chimney rising into a clear blue sky — that speaks to Roubaix's rich architectural and manufacturing heritage. A handsome addition to any library shelf for readers drawn to French urban history told through sequential art.
