Chambord - Then, Now and Forever- Then, Now and
ForeverChambord
In the early 16th century, King Fancis I of France decided to
erect his palace on an inhospitable patch of swampy hunting
grounds. That daunting architectural feat every year attracts more
visitors from all over the world, and provided a stage for key
historical events and figures – from Leonardo da Vinci, to Louis
XIV and the French Revolution, to World War II. But the true
treasure of Chambord is beyond its stone walls, in an expanse of
wooded park the size of Paris – its richly varied and exceptional
wildlife denizen, living in time to nature’s own pulse.

The Red Collar Le Collier Rouge
1919. In a little village sweltering in the summer heat in the
Berry region of France, a dog howls day and night at a barrack’s
gates. Inside is a single prisoner: the mutt’s master, a man named
Morlac. In the countryside nearby, a young woman waits and hopes.
She is exhausted by her labor in the fields, yet seems too
well-educated to be a farm worker. Morlac, a hero of the Great War
decorated for bravery, is to be tried by an officer, Lantier du
Grez, for crimes against the Republic. He faces the death penalty.
The judge has just a few days to piece together the story of the
accused and announce his sentence. So three characters and, among
them, a dog… who holds the key to the mysterious affair.
