This file was produced from images generously made available by the Bibliothèque nationale de France (BnF/Gallica) "Le Tour de France en Aéroplane" by H. de Graffigny is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. The work centers around an adventurous group of young men who are passionate about aviation and embark on a journey to explore the picturesque sites of France using airplanes. Through their experiences, the narrative delves into themes of technological progress and the excitement of new modes of travel in a rapidly changing world. The opening of the book introduces the enthusiastic atmosphere of the "Grande Semaine d'Aviation de Champagne," where public interest in aviation is at its peak, and competitors like Farman and Blériot are gaining fame. A group of young men, including Robert de La Tour-Miranne, Jean Outremécourt, and René de Médouville, watches the exciting events unfold, deeply engaged in discussions about the future of aerial locomotion. This leads to the formation of the "Aéro-tourist-club," where they aim to promote aerial tourism and plan a grand tour of France by airplane. This blend of camaraderie, ambition, and adventurous spirit sets the stage for the novel's exploration of aviation within the context of early 20th-century France.
