From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

My name is Mark Lane; I am an American living in Argentan, France (L'Orne, Basse Normandy) with an interest in rural French landscape history.

Earlier I walked the Mt.St.Michel and St.Jacques pilgrimage trails, and I was impressed by the rich, deep history of the countryside starting with the stone calvaires on the crossroads.

My plan is to summarize and translate the numerous local journal articles found in libraries and archives into user friendly English. Subjects range through archeology, prehistory, history, folklore, architecture, local traditions and natural science.

My French constantly improves but is not adequate to translate from English. I formerly wrote a travel column for an American newspaper, so I feel confident to translate French into English with the help of several dictionaries.
