Publishing house Clermont-Ferrand

The works published by LES include the research of the Faculty of Letters, languages and humanities of the University of Blaise Pascal. They now offer a fairly rich catalogue, focusing mainly on literary studies, history and civilizations, territories and societies.

Name of a pipe, Et si on fait comme eux, Le Marchand de graines, Pour toujours... here are some titles published by Cosette Cartonera, a publishing house unlike any other. First, it is specialized in children's literature. Then, the stories are nice and are beautifully illustrated. Poetry is present on every page. The works are painted and bound by hand! And that's not all! Committed to an ecological approach, the books are made from recycled cardboard. Behind all this is Alicia Cuerva. Are you interested in the art of bookbinding? Workshops are offered to learn one of the many techniques.

Created by De Bussac and composed of a team of architects and illustrators, the Enduring Moment is the great specialist in works containing cutting and reconstitution models. The catalogue has many titles, and is in three collections: Architecture and patterns, for models of monuments (generally all on the same scale to allow comparisons), Grand Angle (which proposes, among other things, inventions by Leonardo da Vinci) and Compas, encyclopaedic complement to deepen its knowledge. The Enduring Moment also broadcasts the books of the Paleo editions.

If Chamina finds its roots in Auvergne, it is not focused on the Massif Central, and its collections of tourist guides cover a territory stretching from the biemont region to the Pyrenees. Chamina's main activity is walking guides, walking or cycling, sailing, sailing, or travelling, but there are also some beautiful books, and guides specifically focused on heritage discovery. One of them invites to a large crossing of the central mountain bike 666 km (from Clermont-Ferrand to Sète). Again, Puy-de-Dôme, an active planet, a collective book, in the Nature Activities collection, which has selected forty sites with fourteen outdoor activities for all seasons and levels. Finally, Le Petit Smart could not ignore the guide to patrimoine heritage: Wine and wine in Auvergne, which offers a wine address book and 40 mini-walk in the vineyards and wine-growing villages.
