Cycling in Search of the Cathars
by Chris Ratcliffe and Elaine Connell
Reprinted in late 2022 with, for the first time, a full colour cover and some coloured photos inside.
The Cathars thrived in medieval Languedoc, now part of south-west France.
In 1987, Chris Ratcliffe and Elaine Connell spent several months cycling around the mountains and valleys of the area. Their aim was to find out more about these mediaeval heretics with modern ideas. This is revised edition, with full colour cover, and colour photos inside, of the successful Cycling in Search of the Cathars which was first published in 1991.
