"Le tour de la France par deux enfants" by G. Bruno is a school reading manual published in 1877. The book follows two orphaned brothers, André and Julien, who flee their annexed Alsace-Lorraine homeland after their father's death to search for their uncle in Marseille. Their journey across France's provinces becomes a vehicle for teaching geography, history, science, and republican moral values through 121 illustrated chapters covering everything from butter-making to photography, great historical figures to regional crafts.
