| Summary | "Cathedral Cities of France" by Herbert Marshall and Hester Marshall is a geographical travelogue written in the early 20th century. The book explores the rich historical and architectural significance of various cathedral cities across France, offering insights to travelers interested in both the majestic structures themselves and the cultural context surrounding them. The opening of the book establishes a framework for understanding the three distinct types of cathedral cities in France, highlighting their varying historical significance and current status. It describes towns that have remained important through the centuries, such as Amiens and Rouen, alongside those like Chartres that have lost their former glory but still retain historical echoes. The narrative introduces readers to how these cities evolved from Roman settlements to their notable cathedral towns today, framing the discussion around the influential role of cathedrals, the local bishops, and the intersections of commerce and faith in shaping these unique urban landscapes.
