Klappentext

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Saint-Brès is a commune in the Hérault department in Languedoc-Roussillon in southern France. Hérault is one of the original 83 departments created during the French Revolution on 4 March 1790. It was created from part of the former province of Languedoc. At the beginning of the 20th century, the wine-growing region was devastated, and thousands of workers revolted. This revolt was suppressed very harshly by the government of Georges Clemenceau. The catastrophic frost of the winter of 1956 damaged the olive trees, and the olive-growing regions did not recover until 1980. Many of the olive-industry co-ops closed.
